PDF Export capable of achieving CFR Part 11 compliance

[MatthewO]

Hello!

I am looking for some advice on how to generate a PDF from a Unistream HMI/PLC capable of meeting  CFR Part 11 compliance. I am aware the HMI/PLC cannot generate a PDF by itself (only CSV) and a secondary Windows based PC with PDF geneation software installed on it would be required to produce a PDF.

My question is - can logons between the Windows PC and the HMI/PLC be linked so that the Windows PC will logon automatically once the user has logged on via the HMI/PLC?

I would then plan to log all actions on the Windows PC using 3rd party sofware and protect appropriate folders to achieve CFR compliance.
