Hello Nard,
Just wanted to let you know that I have read the Tech Tip: Controlling the
Printer and the examples listed used:
the report object inspector
the file | Page Setup dialog
report.printersetup object.
Thanks Nard, I will try your example (below).
Have a great day!
Hello Nard,
Thanks for responding. Yes I did use the tech tip example of
SendTextFileToPrinter(aFileName : string) in creating the text file and
sending the file.
As I mentioned,
How do I get the f…The SingleFileOutput applies to the HTML files only. Any images will always be created

I have added these to lines just before the report print command:
xtraDev.HTML.BaseURL := 'CID:';

I changed my e…You can use the DeviceExportToMail procedure in the TXRB unit. This will generate an HTML
email. You can also check the code to see how this is done if you need more control over

PrintDialogCreate event ?

Do you have a suggestion on how to "rotate" through all of the page files
that are created from sending each page as a file?
Your suggestions are most appreciated.

I have put the image in the header band and later in a region; the result is
the same.
I send yuo the image.
Tanks,
Angelo.
If i preview or print a report, the image is ok.
If i save the report to a raf file and then open it with archive reader the
image is missing in preview and in print operation. The image is defined as
TppImage in ppPageStyle.
Ok.
Sorry.

Hi James,
I understand your point but I think you refer to the white space at the end
of the report.
The white space at the end of a page is related to the fact the RB engine
can't fit the next band on the page so leaving a…The support address does work but to answer your question:
The space is the size of the page defined in the page setup. You
