About printing in Discoverer Plus Relational

Discoverer enables you to print worksheet data and graphs. For example, you might want to mail a printed copy of a Discoverer worksheet to a colleague. Or, if you have Adobe Acrobat installed, you might want to create an Adobe Acrobat Portable Document Format (PDF) file that you can send to colleagues using e-mail.

When you print a worksheet that contains page items, you can either print the current page item values (i.e. exactly what you see on the screen), or all page item values. For example, if you display Month in the page item area and you are currently displaying January data, you can print the January data or data for all months.

If you print worksheets that contain active parameters, Discoverer prompts you to enter parameter values to refine the data that you print.

When you print a worksheet with a graph in Discoverer Plus Relational, the worksheet and graph print on separate pages. To print a worksheet with a graph on the same printed page, you can do one of the following:

• print the worksheet and graph in Discoverer Viewer

• use Discoverer Portlet Provider to display multiple worksheets and graphs as portlets on a single portal page, and print the portal page (for more information, see "Publishing worksheets to OracleAS Portal")

• export the worksheet and graph to an external application (e.g. HTML) and print the page
