You can use various libraries to generate a PDF file in Python. One commonly used library is report lab . from reportlab.lib.pagesizes import letter from reportlab.pdfgen import canvas from ftplib import FTP def create_pdf(file_path, content): c = canvas.Canvas(file_path, pagesize=letter) c.drawString(100, 750, content) c.save() pdf_content = "This is the content of the PDF." pdf_file_path = "output.pdf" create_pdf(pdf_file_path, pdf_content) ftp_host = "ftp.example.com" ftp_user = "your_username" ftp_pass = "your_password" ftp = FTP(ftp_host) ftp.login(user=ftp_user, passwd=ftp_pass) remote_path = "/path/on/remote/server/output.pdf" with open(pdf_file_path, "rb") as pdf_file: ftp.storbinary("STOR " + remote_path, pdf_file) ftp.quit()

Generate PDF Files: You can use a library like fpdf in Python to create PDF files. Here's an example of how you might generate a PDF file for each record: from fpdf import FPDF records = [ {"SalesTerritory": "SA", "InvoiceCredit": "I", "InvoiceNumber": "467087HI", "Date": "230327", "Time": "1442"}, # ... other records ... ] for record in records: pdf = FPDF() pdf.add_page() pdf.set_font("Arial", size=12) pdf.cell(200, 10, "Sales Territory: " + record["SalesTerritory"], ln=True) pdf.cell(200, 10, "Invoice/Credit: " + record["InvoiceCredit"], ln=True) pdf.cell(200, 10, "Invoice Number: " + record["InvoiceNumber"], ln=True) pdf.cell(200, 10, "Date: " + record["Date"], ln=True) pdf.cell(200, 10, "Time: " + record["Time"], ln=True) filename = record["SalesTerritory"] + "XX_" + record["InvoiceNumber"] + "X_" + record["Date"] + "_" + record["Time"] + ".pdf" pdf.output(filename) Send PDF Files to FTP: To send the generated PDF files to an FTP server, you can use the ftplib library in Python. Here's how you can do it: from ftplib import FTP ftp = FTP('ftp.example.com') ftp.login(user='username', passwd='password') for record in records: filename = record["SalesTerritory"] + "XX_" + record["InvoiceNumber"] + "X_" + record["Date"] + "_" + record["Time"] + ".pdf" with open(filename, 'rb') as file: ftp.storbinary('STOR ' + filename, file) ftp.quit()

To generate PDF files based on the provided format and data for 14 records in an MVC5 application and then send them to an FTP server, you can follow these steps: Model : Create a model class that represents the data structure you've provided.public class InvoiceData { public string SalesTerritory { get; set; } public string InvoiceCreditType { get; set; } public string HardCodedXX { get; set; } // ... other properties } PDF Generation and FTP : Loop through your 14 records, generate PDF files, and send them to the FTP server using a library like iTextSharp for PDF generation and System.Net.WebRequest or third-party libraries like FluentFTP for FTP upload. Here's a simplified example of how you might generate PDFs and upload them to an FTP server: using iTextSharp.text; using iTextSharp.text.pdf; using System.IO; using FluentFTP; // ... foreach (var record in records) { // Generate the filename string filename = $"{record.SalesTerritory}{record.HardCodedXX}_{record.InvoiceNumber}_{record.DateYYMMDD}_{record.TimeHHMM}.PDF"; // Create the PDF document Document doc = new Document(); string pdfFilePath = Path.Combine("path/to/pdf/folder", filename); using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(pdfFilePath, FileMode.Create)) { PdfWriter writer = PdfWriter.GetInstance(doc, fs); doc.Open(); // Add content to the PDF here doc.Close(); } // Upload the PDF to FTP server using (var ftp = new FtpClient("ftp.example.com", "username", "password")) { ftp.Connect(); using (FileStream fs = new FileStream(pdfFilePath, FileMode.Open)) { ftp.Upload(fs, $"/remote/folder/{filename}"); } ftp.Disconnect(); } } Please note that this is a simplified example and you might need to handle exceptions, add actual content to the PDF, and manage error handling more robustly in a real-world scenario. Also, make sure to replace placeholders like "path/to/pdf/folder" , "ftp.example.com" , "username" , and "password" with actual values.
