Hello ,
 
I have created a simple Plugin using itextpdf-5.5.4 jar, and placed the plugin file in the C:\Actuate3\BDPro\eclipse\plugins folder as well.
 
Now when ever im running any report i can see the plugin the download option.
But when ever trying to download its giving me following error
"Report engine fails to initialize PDFPwds_Emitter emitter, please make sure required libraries for this emitter are installed. "
 
Suggestion required.

Hi ,
 
Any one who have created own PDF emitter.. can help me out ?
 
Thanks in advance

We would need more information. Without seeing the plug-in manifest, we would not know how the associated JARs were included. There could be an issue with class loading.
 
What did you use as a base? Did you try downloading the source for the existing PDF emitter and modifying it?

You only have 1 class, and the code doesn't appear to follow the emitter standards.

Instead of starting from scratch, you might want to take the OS BIRT PDF Emitter code as a base, and add password protection as test.
 
The OS source code is available from GitHub @ <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='https://github.com/eclipse/birt/tree/c709c5b07db05398fd7f306201017650fa6bf438/engine/org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.emitter.pdf'>https://github.com/eclipse/birt/tree/c709c5b07db05398fd7f306201017650fa6bf438/engine/org.eclipse.birt.report.engine.emitter.pdf</a>
