PDFinclude is an open source (and completely FREE)  Progress ® utility developed to allow Progress developers to dynamically generate reports in Adobe PDF file format without having to use third-party tools or utilities. 

PDFinclude is a stand-alone component that defines a toolset of Progress functions and procedures that aid in the output of a PDF file … without having to generate a separate text file first (as in text2pdf.p).

The PDF file format is fast becoming an industry-standard for electronic document viewing.  The PDF format allows for documents that can be accessed by a broad range of hardware and software devices (including PDAs and Internet browsers).

PDFinclude utilizes Progress code that is compliant with versions 8 and 9 of the Progress 4GL and the same source code can be used on multiple OS platforms - including Windows, AIX, Unixware, Solaris etc. - while running in different application environments (eg: GUI, CHUI, web-enabled and n-tier).

FYI .... PDFinclude is now hosted on sourceforge.net.
