Hi Jure,
I'm unclear about what you are ultimately trying to accomplish. Setting
the Device.EndPrintJob property to True simply lets the device know that
it needs to call the EndJob routine after the report finishes generatin… -
Hi Gary,
The OpenFile property was added for RB 15. Which version are you
upgrading from?
The error generally indicates that you are trying to use an older .dcu

Hi Andreas,
Which exact version of ReportBuilder are you using and which version of
Delphi are you using?
Exporting to PDF and the report engine are not related. Does this only
occur when exporting to PDF or are yo… -
Hi Jure,
Setting the Report.PreviewFormSettings in the BeforePreview will cause
an infinite loop due to the fact that the preview is automatically
updated when a property is set.
You will want to set the Viewer.Sing… -
Tony,
As I mentioned before, the only way an image is "scaled" would be if the
ScaleImages property is set to true. The ProcessImage routine defines
the size of the box the image will be placed inside the PDF page. This
Hi Tony,
Try setting the PDFSettings.ScaleImages property to False and see if
that solve the problem. This is the only reason an image being exported
to PDF would be scaled in ReportBuilder.

I am a bit unclear about what a DPI setting for PDF would do.
The PDF format renders text, graphics, etc. with specific instructions
(vector graphics) similar to a windows metafile. This way when a PDF
fil…Hi Paul,
Thanks for the suggestion. I did not see it so I added it to our list
of possible enhancements for a future release.
Hi Jim,
You can limit the pages in a report by using the Report.PageLimit property.
If you would like to alter the font of an entire page, you would need to
do so before the page prints and perhaps perform a report object…Hi Martin,
Each report/subreport in ReportBuilder simply traverses the data it is
given.
Rather than joining your data, you will need to link multiple datasets
in a master-detail relationship in order to get the out…Hi Martin,
You will want to use two Fixed style subreports vertically sized to
approximately half a page. See the main reports demo for examples of
using Fixed style subreports in your report.
Hi Nick,
The PageIncrement property has a minimum value of 100 to avoid threading
issues. We will consider lowering that minimum for a later release of
ReportBuilder.
Hi Paul,
I understand. From the call stack it is clear that the application
cannot retrieve the printer's device context. If they are able to print
to a different printer successfully, it may be an access issue (network
Hi Paul,
This could be a number of issues. Are you able to test with another
printer? Does the problem happen every time you print? Have you tested
with RB 15.05?
Any more information about the circumstances of t…Hi Laurent,
rbPrint.xxx contains all the print/preview related resource strings.
This is all you will need unless you are using some of the end-user
reporting features of ReportBuilder such as the runtime designer, DADE,
Hi Laurent,
If you would like your application to automatically detect the regional
language of the OS, you could use the utility routine

The current translated language can be controlled using the
Report.LanguageID property.
When installing ReportBuilder, you have the option to install a number

not ReportBuilder.

Which version of ReportBuilder and Delphi are you using? I copy/pasted
your code into a buttonclick event on my machine and all fonts were
exported as Unicode fonts.
Does this only occur with the Akkurat f…Hi Jure,
It does not appear your font is being exported with Unicode encoding.
Are you loading templates? If so, you need to be sure to set the PDF
settings after the template is loaded.
As a test I tried your code…Hi Bora,
ReportBuilder uses the Windows API to access the standard features of a
printer. It does not have access to special custom features included
with specific printers such as multiple pages per sheet. Below are a
Hi Ben,
Did you try running the example? Does it function correctly?
Try tracing into the BeforePrint and StartPage events and see if all the
code is properly executing and that the values are correct.
Hi Ben,
If you need to display the copy number, you can use the
TppSystemVariable with VarType property set to vtCopyNo or vtCopyNoDesc.
If you would like more control over what is displayed, you can use the

If I understand your requirements correctly, using parameters, you would
like to suppress the initial showing of the AutoSearch dialog when the
report is first previewed, but still allow your users to alter the

Parameters and AutoSearch are two separate features. The
