AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):
Yes, you can use Suitelet to return a PDF in advance. Here's a general approach on how you can do this: 1. Create a Suitelet that generates a form with a "Print" button. 2. Add a client script to your Suitelet that includes the function associated with the "Print" button. 3. This function should call a server-side Suitelet that processes your request to generate and return the PDF. 4. Use the
N/render
module to generate the PDF file. 5. Use
ServerResponse.writeFile
to write the file from the Suitelet. Here's a simplified example of how you can use
N/render
and `ServerResponse.writeFile`:
Copy code
javascript
var render = require('N/render');
var serverResponse = require('N/serverResponse');

// Create a PDF using N/render
var pdf = render.transaction({
    entityId: 123,
    printMode: render.PrintMode.PDF,
});

// Write the file from the Suitelet using ServerResponse.writeFile
serverResponse.writeFile({
    file: pdf,
    isInline: true
});
Please note that this is a simplified example and you may need to adjust it according to your specific requirements. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
