View Output Using Notepad ++

Hi guys,

 

I am not sure if this is possible but I would like to view my output using the notepad ++ either to convert into pdf. The raw file is csv and I would like this to view as like below: I need to check if it has CRLF at the end.

Please advise what tool I am going to use. Any ideas is very much appreciated.

 

Thanks,

Kamen

@KamenRider this one is challenging - and i wonder why you need it, never saw this requirement before - anyway, my best guess would be to use cmd/python to interact with notepad++ and print the file directly from it.

 

Tomorrow i will take a better look and see if this idea make sense.

Just to chip in, I tried to do something like this before but Notepad++ serves more as an extension of the Text files that help better read the content. 

Hence, you may need something else to overcome this. https://community.alteryx.com/t5/Alteryx-Server-Knowledge-Base/How-To-Use-the-Analyse-Plugin-in-Note...

Hope that helps!

Thanks for giving time to this. Please be advised that my file is in csv format. Manually, we open it in Notepad++ and view the CRLF. My goal is to have the file viewed with CRLF with automatically open in Notepad ++ or better in pdf format.

 

Looking forward for your idea soluton.

 

Thanks,

Kamen

Hi @caltang 

 

Thanks for your suggestion. I will look into this if this is applicable to my project. This kind of nice solution. I hope this can be connected to my Alteryx designer I am working.
