Hello Everyone,

I want to build reports that able to preview and convert to pdf format on rails app.
if possible, I don't want to use any tool add-on (gem). 
Anyone who has any guide or sample projects please suggest me.

Thank you.

It is impossible to do anything in Rails without using gems. Rails
itself is just a collection of gems.

I have not generated pdf myself in rails so cannot speak from personal
experience, but googling for
rails generate pdf
generates a number of useful looking hits and will certainly provide
information on the various approaches that are possible. That is
certainly where I would start.

Hello Dev, 

Few days ago we used this gem for PDF Reports 

gem 'prawn'.

And if you have a budget for it, then I heartily recommend PrinceXML, which does an amazing job.
