Handling a PDF File Opened during Recording with Loadrunner

I am recording a Web Application with Report Functionality Using LoadRunner. When I click Run the Report, It Opens the PDF Report in a New Window.

Here my concern is I want to identify that window and want to Know How much time it takes to open that Report.

Note: During recording The opened report is getting saved in LoadRunnner Data Folder. But i cant identify the Exact time open the Report since I cant record in New Window.
I have used WEB/HTTP Protocol to record the script.

Please comment on this with your views.

Re: Handling a PDF File Opened during Recording with Loadrunner

I just tried recording a scripts that has a PDF report file pop-up in a new web-window.
I can get a Transaction Time by setting Start and Finish as I record the script.

I did see any benefits in recording using URL over HTTP.

Re: Handling a PDF File Opened during Recording with Loadrunner

Hope this reply helps someone who is looking for answer from tomorrow :
While scripting, you'll find the application downloading the PDF document.
You can very well go to the generation log and search for "PDF".
You'll find some junk values at one instance.
Now, correlate this by choosing the left and right boundary.(Note : Set Notfound=warning while using the web_reg_save_param function)
Go for a quick loop, just behind this transaction in the script until you get the correlated value.
When you get the correlated value, it implies the PDF got downloaded.
I know its hard to understand, but someone who need clarification,please send me a message.
