PRINTING NS
DOCUMENTS
42 © Oracle | NetSuite Inc. 2018
PRINTING AND ADVANCED PDFS
• Printing documents in NetSuite is simple
43 © Oracle | NetSuite Inc. 2018
PRINTING SETUP AND TEMPLATE CUSTOMIZATION
1. Let’s customize an invoice PDF template
− WYSIWYG
− Freemarker - https://freemarker.apache.org/docs/index.html
2. Create a new transaction form to use our template for printing
− Select printing type
− And template
44 © Oracle | NetSuite Inc. 2018
INTRO TO ADVANCED
PDF/HTML TEMPLATES
45 © Oracle | NetSuite Inc. 2018
Advanced PDF/HTML Templates
− Advanced PDF/HTML is a template-based model for printing transactions
− Output is either HTML or PDF (we will focus on the PDF output)
− Feature supports an alternate model for customizing printed transactions
− The template editor uses FreeMarker-based syntax
46 © Oracle | NetSuite Inc. 2018
How does it work?
The PDF printing subsystem uses a combination of two 3rd party libraries
• FreeMarker scripting in XML, generates static XML for BFO
• BFO (Big Faceless Report Generator) Freemarker  PDF
47 © Oracle | NetSuite Inc. 2018
BASIC CODING
48 © Oracle | NetSuite Inc. 2018
BASIC JAVASCRIPT/Freemarker - EXPRESSIONS
• Expressions are usually surrounded by ${}
• Variable is accessed by its name ${record.total}
− Conditions <# if record.total > 0 >
• Support for map keys and collection indexes ${person.phones[1]}
• Logical operations: &&, ||, !, ==, !=, <, >, <=, >=
49 © Oracle | NetSuite Inc. 2018
BASIC JAVASCRIPT/Freemarker - CONDITIONS
• <#if expression>, <#elseif expression>, <#else>
• <#if> is pair tag, it must be closed
• Character < must be escaped or surrounded by () , <#if x > 1 > vs. <#if (x > 1)>
<#if x == 1> “x is 1”
<#elseif x == 2> “x is 2“
<#elseif x == 3> “x is 3”
</#if>
