Showing a PDF in a report

edited September 2005 in General
Not been here for a while. All our reports are working day after day and
they never get tired or crash. A tribute to Delphi and Report Builder.

Is the above possible.


We have A4 PDF files that when we convert to Jpeg lose some quality.

    Hi Steve,

    Unfortunately we do not know of any components that allow you to view PDF
    inside a Report. One option you might research is converting your PDF to
    RTF, then using the ReportBuilder RichText object to view the information
    inside the report.

    Hi,

    You could actually try the following option:

    Gnostice PDFtoolkit VCL has the capability to draw PDFs to a canvas and also
    convert PDFs to a vector graphics file (EMF). You could then take the EMF and
    place it on your report. Most PDFs can now be rendered with PDFtoolkit. Please
    download the trial version at www.gnostice.com to check if your PDFs render
    fine. For a quick test, here's the viewer demo:
