Hi,
I am beginning a new project and am looking at hardware resource requirements.
There are 2 aspects that i dont believe flowcode currently covers.
The first would be internal mass storage, I want the STM32 to look like a USB drive.
The second is the compiling of a PDF file that is created within the drive so that the user can open the data.
The PDF creation is a strange one, i dont seem to be able to find much on how its done, but here are companies using this in their products.
Any ideas on either of these topics within flowcode?
Thanks

Hello,
Some information here on the PDF file format. Looks like it might be a lot of work to do it yourself without using a library.

As for using the internal Flash and USB, this has not currently been covered by Flowcode but should all be possible using the ST HAL examples inside of Flowcode. You may also be able to use external flash such as an SD card or other NVM memory to store the file.

Re: Create a PDF on an STM32
Hi Kisen
Instead of a pdf you can maybe create a csv file .This is an excel file and is very, very easy to create.
I also suspect an HTML file would be easy to create.
