Preview subreports Print and PDF

edited August 2010 in General
I have 2 sub-reports. When a user decides to print from Preview I want the
first sub-report to Print but the second one to go to PDF.
Is this possible?
Thanks

    Hi Eug,

    There is no automatic way to export a single subreport to file while
    printing another section of the report to paper. I believe the best option
    would be to do this with two separate print jobs.

    1. You will first need to take control over the print button in the Preview
    window when it is selected. This could also be done by replacing the
    PrintDialog as well.

    2. Then you can print the report twice (one time with the second subreport
    hidden and one time with the first subreport hidden) switching the device
    type for each print.
