Image in footer

rbuser

Hello.


I have a report with a large image in the footer. At the moment it is a wmf
file that is loaded at run time.
On the windows 2000 machines here it works but on one of the windows 98
machines, the image appears all black

I havn't tried changing the image to a different format yet (that's my next
step), but either way, it still should be printing, right?
I appears in the preview form correctly.


Thanks.

Anthony.

Some printer drivers don't handle the printing of images from RB. We rely on
Windows API calls to draw the images to the printer device context. Try
testing with the latest printer driver from the manufacturer. Also, try
testing on a different printer.

The best chance for success in printing the image is to toggle the
DirectDraw property and to set Transparent to false on the image component
in the report.


Cheers,
