  I need to generate a pdf and send via email with Java and Springboot. Is it possible starting from a template stored in database?

  Hello Andrea,

  ActiveReportsJS runs on the client side (Front-end JavaScript) hence it would not be possible to generate a PDF within Java. However, you can export your report to PDF and download it on your machine from the client side.
