What should I do if I want to send the pdf to firebase or airtable for saving?
hey @kentleow1496 use cloudinary upload the file to cloudinary and save the returned url in firebase
The created PDF file size is too high, I created a page file still created a file size of 20MB, Plz help me with how to decrease this file size.
I want to convert the image to pdf format.
Thanks.

but i dont have sdcard inserted in my phone, because my phone memory is enough then how can i store that generated file in /storage/emulated/0/myfolder directory? its internal storage…how to do that?
if someone is talking about an sdcard, then usually always the internal (emulated) sdcard is meant…
It would really help if you provided a screenshot of your relevant blocks, so we can see what you are trying to do, and where the problem may be.
To get an image of your blocks, right click in the Blocks Editor and select “Download Blocks as Image”. You might want to use an image editor to crop etc. if required. Then post it here in the community.

try /MyApp/123.pdf
and you better use the ASD - application specific directory to store files…
which Android version are you using for your tests?

but ASD only work on mobiles having android 10 and above… my test device have android 11 but app is going to run on kitkat 4.4 . if i use ASD functions for now and at the time of giving to client use nonASD function then it would work?
Download new version if this extension
there is a block to know whether the device is running on android 10 or below it
I don’t know if it’s available on kodular or not but you can look it up here Create PDF file Extension. Layout to PDF - Extensions - MIT App Inventor Community
getAsdPath() returns storage/emulated/0/Android/data/io.makeroid.companion/files but but storage/emulated/0/Android/data directory is empty no io.makeroid.companion folder is present there
If you have Android<10, use the Create, AddPage and Finish blocks.
The pdf file will be saved in /mnt/sdcard (or /storage/emulated/0/)
[you can also change the directory, for example Download/my_file.pdf]
If you have Android>= 10 use the Create10, AddPage10 and Finish10 blocks, the file will be saved in /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/‘namepackage’/files/
(*) You can use the blocks: Create10, AddPage10 and Finish10 for all versions of Android.

So here, you use device utilities to check the android version. If it is <10, >=10 you can define the rule under same button click. No issue
I am using Android11 phone (MI A3). there is no directory in storage/emulated/0/Android/data … Also it does not ask to grant permission…
@Suraj_Salavi
if you add these blocks to Example_PDF.aia
you install the app and press the Button5, do you get /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/io.kodular.name.Example_PDF?
/storage/emulated/0/ or
file:///mnt/sdcard/ or
file:///storage/emulated/0/
Anyone method may work
