Hello

Can't you create pdf with the publisher if the lef only has PDF_DISTRIBUTION;YES in it?

Yes you can generate and distribute if you have PDF_DISTRIBUTION;YES in your LEF.

You can find more information in this video

Thank your for the video I have already watch that video and it doesn't help me.

My problem is that in our publisher we have PDF_GENERATION;YES; it is working and sends pdf.

We have a testpublisher with a testlicense with PDF_DISTRIBUTION;YES and it doesn't work. I have tried to send a qlikviewdocument instead of pdf and it worked.

Any suggestion what can be wrong?

What is the difference between PDF_GENERATION; and PDF_DISTRIBUTION; ?
