Hi Jeff,
Are you exporting from the print dialog? If so, you need to check the
Report.PrintDialog.DeviceType property to determine which file type the
user selected. Report.DeviceType is not changed unless it is set before <… -
Hi Jeff,
My suggestion would be to hide the header band based on which device is
being printed to. You could use the OnStartPage event to check the
device and page number to determine whether the header band should show
After re-reading your post, it appears this is a completely different
issue. This thread addresses the "Empty PDF" issue when altering the
FormatSettings global property. If you are able to see objects inside
your exported PDF, t…Paul,
I'm a bit unclear about what exactly you are changing. If possible,
please send a simple example showing this behavior to
support@digital-metaphors.com in .zip format and I'll look at it for you.
The only req…Hi Mauro,
This is a requirement for all versions of ReportBuilder from RB 12 on.
Hi Mauro,
Starting with RB 12, if your application (at any time) alters the
built-in Delphi FormatSettings, the ReportBuilder ppFormatSettings also
need to be updated. The issues with PDF are generally caused by
alterin…Hi Peter,
In order to position report objects in their exact locations, the RB
HTML/XHTML device uses thetag to export elements to an HTML file.
This is unfortunately not fully supported by the latest versions of
Hi Philip,
There is now a patch available for RB 14.07 that fixes this issue. Send
an email to support@digital-metaphors.com to receive the patch.
Hi Daniel,
Transparent images are not currently supported for PDF. This is a
feature we will consider adding for a later release of ReportBuilder.
Hi Jeroen,
The RTF device does not currently support memo leading calculation.
This is due to the fact that RTF itself does not support leading. I
will look into possibly adjusting the line spacing for the Text Box
feat…The PDF device does not currently support InfoPower RichText with images
embedded. This is due to the fact that the rendering logic InfoPower
uses utilizes the API function ModifyWorldTransform which is currently
not supported by …This question is being answered via email. Please use only one support
method.
Hi Deza,
This is not a known issue. Do the errors occur with every report
previewed or only certain reports?
If you are using RB 14.07, try setting the
PreviewFormSettings.SinglePageOnly property to True and see if…Hi Christian,
This would require two generations of the same report. One with the
Group.NewFile property set to True and one with it set to False.
Something like the following.

Please create a minimal example of this and send it in .zip format to
support@digital-metaphors.com and we'll take a look at it for you.
Hi Perry,
The DeviceType is not updated by the print dialog. Try using the
Report.FileDevice property instead. Also, the Band.BeforePrint event
fires too late to hide the entire band. Try using the StartPage or

The built-in jpg export uses the default resolution of a TJPEGImage

Being that the EasyMapi plugin is completely separate from the rest of
the ReportBuilder product, it would be fairly easy to expose the Session
and Message properties yourself to temporarily solve the problem.
Of course an eas…Hi Philip,
The current EasyMAPI plugin does not give access to the MAPISession or
MAPIMessage objects to directly access any advanced features. I will
make these properties public for the next release so they can be
man…Hi Philip,
No, EasyMapi is not included in any of the ReportBuilder packages. You
can also add the "VCL" unit scope name to your project options to avoid
any errors.
Also, note that RB 14 includes a built-in Extend…Hi Jon,
Access to the file devices' published properties is available from RAP.
Something like the following inside the OnFileDeviceCreate event.

…Hi Mike,
The new ExtendedMAPI plugin is similar to the Simple MAPI plugin
(TppSMTPMAPI) in that it connects to the default MAPI enabled email
client on your machine and sends an email.

Which exact version of ReportBuilder are you using?
Below is the simple test I performed with expected results. Please
alter my steps so that I can reproduce this issue on my machine.

support@digital-metaphors.com and I'll take a look at it for you.
2. Are you using a custom previewer? How are you exporting to PDF
directly from…Hi Joe,
Try setting ScaleImages to False. This will ensure the full image is
exported into the space provided inside the PDF file rather than scaled
down to fit.
Hi Lane,
The TextFileDevice is not designed to output a single record per line.
This is however a fairly simple device that outputs each line based on
the BandSaveNo property of the drawcommand sent.
See the TppText…The example is designed for the printer (hence Report.PrinterDevice).
You will want to swap out for Report.FileDevice is you want this effect
when exporting to file.
Hi Eliseu,
Take a look at demo 124 of the main reports demo. It shows how to print
specific pages using the BeforePrint Event and the ppTextToPageList routine.
Hi Steve,
I'm sorry, I somehow didn't register that you were using an
ArchiveReader. The method of setting the PrinterSetup when using an
ArchiveReader is a bit different than with a report.
When using an ArchiveRea…
