The link should be something like this

https://cs4.salesforce.com/apex/quotation?id=opportunityIDVal

This way salesforce will pick the details of that particular opportuntiy and render on the page

Does the URL that navigates to this VF page has value for id as query string parameter?

Also, i suggest you use apex:outputField tag instead.

 

One more thing, remove renderAs attribute and check if values are printed.

Hi Imran,

 

None.  It is a custom opportunity link configured only as below.

Hi Imran,

 

Sorry, one more thing, how can I display values in plain text? some  values with data type as LOOKUP are displaying as link in the pdf page.

 

Thanks!

For example if there is a lookup field named Sample__c, then to display the name rather than link, you should do it as

<apex:outputText value='{!Sample__r.name}'/>
