Hello
I was reading the changes for sp2 and this was listed
Navision now supports the .fdf file format for creating .pdf documents based on data in Navision.


Anybody knows what does this mean? "based on data in Navision".
Do they mean reports?

    Hi! Looks like we can be able to create pdf-files from navision soon. With fdf files (pdf base data) we can create real pdf files or other files to excel or access..

    What is a FDF file? FDF-files contain content of PDF form fields. That means there are two different kinds of file formats a PDF form creates: 1st the pure PDF file where texts, structure and pictures of a form are located in. 2nd the FDF file where form field content - that means content a user edits to a form - are saved in. Up to now it is very awkward to convert a FDF file to other data formats like Microsoft Access or an Excel file.
