Hi all,
Hope you can help me. Want to make accessible to clients the reports in hobbit i.e. trend graphs and availability report via exterior output like a readable document e.g. pdf (would be the best option). These would mostly be pictures of the data output. How could this be done? Do you have an example? Is this possible? How is the data stored and manipulated? Would there be a need for programming to make this happen? Been going through the documentation and find it all more than a bit overwhelming.

The big question is how/where is the data kept and how is it retrieved and displayed.

All help would be greatly appreciated.

Hope im not spamming you all with this noob post. If so you have my apologies.

This is purely speculative, but what about writing a script that uses  wget/curl to get the page and then use some kind of html to pdf  program (e.g. http://www.tufat.com/s_html2ps_html2pdf.htm)
