[MroBurk]

Hi, I need help for saving a created pdf into a specific folder, and (the folder) if not exist I need to create... Thanks to any ideas

Private Sub PanelToPdf(Panel As B4XView, FileName As String)
    Dim pdf As PdfDocument
    pdf.Initialize
    pdf.StartPage(595, 842) 'A4 size
    Dim bmp As B4XBitmap = Panel.Snapshot
    Dim dest As Rect
    dest.Initialize(10, 10, 0, 0)
    dest.Width = bmp.Width / bmp.Scale
    dest.Height = bmp.Height / bmp.Scale
    pdf.Canvas.DrawBitmap(bmp, Null, dest)
    pdf.FinishPage
    Dim out As OutputStream = File.OpenOutput(provider.SharedFolder, FileName, False)
    pdf.WriteToStream(out)
    out.Close
    pdf.Close
    
    Dim in As Intent
    in.Initialize(in.ACTION_VIEW, "")
    provider.SetFileUriAsIntentData(in, FileName)
    in.SetType("application/pdf")
    StartActivity(in)
End Sub

Thanks Erel, I tried this code, but it doesn't work with pdf

What didn't work? Provide details, please.

the code allows to save the file, but if you try to open that file, it is damaged.. with *.txt it works very well but it does't work with *.pdf.. you can try yourself with the posted project... Maybe I did anything wrong...

Sleep(15000)
    File.WriteString(File.DirInternal, "1.pdf", "pdf")
    Wait For (SaveFile(File.OpenInput(File.DirInternal, "1.pdf"), "application/octet-stream", "1.pdf")) Complete (Success As Boolean)
    Log("File saved successfully? " & Success)

1. You don't this sleep call.
2. The code makes no sense.

SaveFile(File.OpenInput(provider.SharedFolder, FileName), "application/pdf", "pdf")
