Can you glue PVC pipe to ppr pipe fittings if not how do you make the transition?

NO, I don't believe this is possible -PPR fittings are made from polypropylene and nobody has yet developed a solvent or glue to join pieces of it. If you read any PPR manual you will see the words " Can be fitted fast and easily by special tools" -or something like that. Polypropylene is joined either by special 'mechanical ' fittings or' hot welded'. There is no Transition cement to join it either.
Actually, I really can't imagine WHY you would want to do this anyway. In my local suppliers I see literally hundreds of PVC fittings to cover every eventuality.
