PDF Exports

CEOs have asked us, “Why isn’t there an easy way to create a colorful report (while in brainstorming sessions) that we can forward to others in our organization? With the PDF Export feature, you can do just that! A single click provides you with data and charts in an attractive, full-color format that’s ready to print and distribute to a credit union board and management staff.

How Does It Work?

This feature has been added to many dashboards and related screens in CU*BASE, with plans for further expansion in the future. Dashboards with the PDF option can be accessed from many menus in CU*BASE including the Management Dashboards, “Knowing Your Member,” Marketing, and Teller & Cash Analysis Tools menus.

Just click a new PDF icon (to the left of the existing Excel export icon) and CU*BASE will create a PDF in Adobe format containing all the data and graphs you see on the screen. (You must first purchase and install the licensed iText software on your computer.)

How Do I Install the iText Sharp Software on my computer needed to view these PDF Exports?

The CU*BASE side of the PDF feature is already in production and is activated. Credit unions, however, will need to puchase licenses and install a software product called iText Sharp on each computer. Credit unions will work directly with iText Software Corp to purchase licenses. CU*Answers will handle any issues relating to the CU*BASE display of the PDFs. iText is responsible for anything related to the installation or performance of the iTextSharp software.
