It should. What version are you using?
When you hit the print button it will create a pdf document.

I'm using 2.1

the initial call to the viewer was
/frameset?__document=mydocument.rptdocument

when I click on the print button, I get a new page with a 0 on it with the
following URL: frameset?__document=mydocument.rptdocument&__format=pdf

Thanks
Leah

Can you try using the run mapping instead of the frameset?

If I manually set the URL to
run?__document=myreport.rptdocument&__format=pdf&__o verwrite=false

then it works.
The print button inside the viewer is calling frameset?

When I hit the print in 2.1.1 I get
http://localhost:8080/birt2.1.1/frameset?__report=test.rptde sign&sample=my+parameter&__format=pdf

And it formats correctly.

Any chance you can try 2.1.1?

I'm sorry, I am running it on 2.1.1.

I've also tried it on 2.2M4 (installed on same server).

I am using Sybase EAServer 5.3 JDK1.4.2

Also, I'm trying to Render the rptdocument to PDF - not the rptdesign.

Can you log a bugzilla entry with the log file?
