- please do not type in uppercase. This indicates yelling and therefore is not appropriate
- In Windows all devices such as video displays and printers use a driver. Drivers support Windows API commands. This enables applications (such as Delphi applications you build) to work with any type of video and printer hardware.
ReportBuilder <----> Windows API <----> Printer Driver <---> Hardware
- Escape commands can be used to send commands directly to the driver. Typically Escape commands are used to issue device specific commands.
- as noted in the prior tech tip article. You can optionally use ReportBuilder's ReportTextFile device output to export the report to a .txt file which you can then send to the printer. Demo dm0107.pas in the main reports demo app shows an example of printing a report to a .txt file and previewing the results.
