This command is used to force the report to be a PDF formatted file. When added as a command to the top of the script, the report file is then automatically saved to disk with the file extension .pdf
If you have a file association in your Windows Explorer for Adobe Acrobat for example, Acrobat will automatically be run up on execution of the report using the Test button or when running from within the Report mechanism.
