Printing to PDf drivers

rbuser

Hi folks
I am using RBuilder enterprise 6.01 and am having difficulty priting to
various pdf drivers. The one I get the best success with is Win2PDF but not
perfect. The situation is that I have a mixture of portrait size subreports
followed by some landscape size subreports. On the landscape I have a title
bar that is 11 inches wide with some ppLabels and ppSystemVariables that
show up ok in the pdf document. Also a couple of ppShape components that are
aligned to ParentWidth. There is also an ppImage component in the titleband
that prints fine on a real printer but does not show up when printing to
pdf. If I reduce the width of the ppImage to less than half the width of the
report it show up in the pdf.

Now while writing this news item I have discovered that if I change the
ppImage.DirectDraw to true the problem goes away. So I'll leave this post in
case others run across this issue.

Why not use one of the third-party devices for streaming
to different formats like pdf. See tech-tips newsgroup (Formats and
Devices),
for more info.

Hello,

We have had customers in the past try to print to a PDF Driver with very
limited success as well. Thanks for the information.
