The backend is developed in Java as a ServerObjectExtension: PChPrintSOE
The communication to the SOE is realized by the REST. So, any client can be used Flex, Javascript, ... I just created a simple FlexWidget.
Some features: - full print over the rest api (usable by any client) - export to pdf,jpeg,png,emf and mxd! - view paper layout extent live on map - make print on a "template" mapservice by keeping the predefined layout - multi-mapservices/multi-server support - add graphics on the map view positioned in map units - add elements on the layout view positioned in paper units like scalebar, scaletext
The code is under full development: - support for wms layer - code clean up and reorganization
Any suggestions, remarques or help is welcome.
Live demo with public Esri mapservices (last print button): http://gis.pch.etat.lu/flexViewerPrint/ - use this print widget with your PChPrintSOE-enabled mapservices for high quality - draw first some graphics with the DrawWidget prior making your print (in mxd format)
Copy the "jar" file into "<AGS-Server-Home>\java\lib\ext" Open a command prompt in the same directory For registration, execute "..\..\jre\bin\java -jar PCHarcgisSOE.jar server domain user password register" For un-registration, execute "..\..\jre\bin\java -jar PCHarcgisSOE.jar server domain user password unregister"
PrintGUI, to debug easier the printing code
Open a command prompt in the same directory as above Execute "..\..\jre\bin\java -jar PCHarcgisSOE.jar printgui" Just copy/paste from the widget the "webmapobject" or the resturl to test your printing
can act as GP-geoprocessing tool (more infos will soon be available)
full ArcGIS Server 10.1 support

Hi Tom... I've posted my try at bitbucket. in order to solve my issue (error 500) I've substituted the jar and followed the steps above, but the PCHPrintSOEv101 at rest reply with a "invalid url".
hy, If you are on AGS 10.0, you have to use the PchPrintSOE extension. The PCHPrintSOEv101 is reserved for ArcGIS 10.1 I'm currently working on a merge of the 2 SOEs into 1 single SOE for both server versions. Here a more complete quickstart guide: http://gis.pch.etat.lu/flexViewerPrint/quickstart.html
Hi Tom! Great widget! If the Aerial basemap is selected, it doesn't show in the PDF. All other basemap layers are included in the PDF when they are selected - Streets, Topo, etc. Please see examples in the attached file.
I've read through the forums but I couldn't find the answers to my issues.
First I tried the Build version and I got the error: "Cannot access a property or method of a null object reference".
So I immediately went for the source code implementation. Now I'm getting this error: "Unable to resolve resource bundle "PchPrintWidget" for locale "en_US".
Based on google searches I tried adding this file to my build path: "C:\Program Files\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.6\sdks\4.6.0\frameworks\locale\en_US\framework_rb.swc" Didn't help.
Any push in the right direction would be a welcome.
I'm back to getting the null object reference error but I can investigate it now that I've got your source code working. Hopefully it will be another simple oversight on my part.
