Bitmaps and JPEGS not printing

rbuser

I'm trying to print a BMP and JPEG on a in the PageStyle area and no matter
what I've tried it will not print. The visible property is true,
Transparent is true. What am I missing?


Thanks

Just forgot to mention the BMP and JPEGS display fine on the print preview.
These images also print fine through other programs. Using Delphi 7 and
Report Builder Pro V7.03

Thanks again

Hi Stan,

As a test, try disconnecting all your event handlers and re-print your
report. Also, try setting the Transparency to False as some printers cannot
handle transparent images.

The image will print if transparent is set to false. However, this image
will print through other graphics programs. Is there something else that can
be done because setting transparent to false does not look professional when
the image is placed on a shape that has a color.

Thanks again

Hi Stan,

The only other thing you could try is toggling the DirectDraw property and
see if that makes a difference. Other than that you may have to manually
change the background color of your image to match the background of your
report or try printing to another printer.

I have already tried the DirectDraw property but that did not make any
difference. I will scrap the color on the shape.

Thanks for the help
