Problem wirh 9.02 and PDF

rbuser

Hi,

I'm using Win XP sp2 and D7 pro with current Delphi patches and RB 9.02
with corrected second patch installed, so all should be latest version.

I am getting an error message when printing to PDF (RB's PDF) - "The font
MSSansSerf contains a bad /bbox". The report has check boxes on it, but
prints OK to a printer or to a printer driver for creating PDF files.

Another problem I have is a compile error message for the third party
components - PsRBExportDevices. They seem to be incompatible with the new
9.02 release. I disabled them and recompiled my project OK.

Hi Austin,

Unfortunately I was unable to recreate this error by simply placing a Label
with its font set to MSSanSerif and exporting it to PDF. If possible,
please send a simple demonstration of this error in .zip format to
support@digital-metaphors.com and I'll take a look at it for you.

You will probably need to recompile the ExportDevices packages in order for
them to function properly with the latest release of RB.

Nico,

I'll set up a test case later today and send you.

The error seems flakey and happens sometimes in this sequence:
I have toggle switch to either print directly to PDF or to the Screen in my
program logic.


Print directly to a PDF bypassing the print preview -Sometimes OK.
Print to Print Preview - always OK.
Print to PDF - error with font??

The check box font is a winding not a MSSansSerf??
