pdf instead of html as default output format

Hi all,
I would like to output all reports in pdf format instead of html.
I dont want to allow users to choose an export format.
So, if they access an URL and fill some textboxes with appropriated
parameters I can send them a ready-to-print PDF file in Internet Explorer.
Is it possible?
(I´m assuming all clients uses IE browser and Acrobat Reader plugin).
thanks a lot!One way you can do it is in the url of the report. You can add at the end of
your report url:
&rs:Command=Render&rs:format=pdf
Since it is in the url you have to be careful how you open it. I just open
the report in a new windows and it will actually render the report in the
adobe acrobat reader progam so there is no url the user can change. You
could embed it in an iframe on a page to display to a user as well.
