Some problems with TppDBRichText
1) Font Size
I've stored some RichText in blob fields in my database, but when i print
them with reportbuilder the font is not the size it's supposed to be (The
font name however is correct)
2) Location of other components
Since my TppDBRichText is assigned to a Blobfield the size of the component
changes as the content of the Blobfield changes. TppRichText components have
a property which says they have to move to a position relative to the
position of another component. ppLabel and other components don't have that
property. How can i tell my Label it has to move higher/lower according to
the size of the TppDBRichText?
3) Grouping Components?
How can i force a TppDBRichEdit and a TppDBImage to be printed on the same
page?

the width of the characters seems to be different from the original
document. Did the same test with Wordpad and got the same result as
Reportbuilder.
Conclusion:
The difference in appearance has nothing to do with Reportbuilder. It's
typical for the RTF format.
Does anybody know how to adjust linespacing in RTF?
