Saving PDF file

rbuser

Hi
D4, Report Builder 6 with TExtraDevs

When a report print device type (such as PDFFILE) is selected, is it
possible to automatically save the result to a code defined file name
without displaying the printer dialogue screen to the user?

Manuy thanks

Here's an example:

var
lDevice: TPDFDevice;
begin
lDevice := TPDFDevice.Create(nil);

lDevice.Publisher := ppReport1.Publisher;
lDevice.PageSetting := psAll;
lDevice.FileName := 'C:\report.pdf';

ppReport1.PrintToDevices;

lDevice.Free;
end;

Thanks Alex

but I get the error message

[Error] Unit1.pas(32): Undeclared identifier: 'TPDFDevice'

Do I need to add something to the uses section?

Yes, the unit that has TPDFDevice. Seach Extra Devices directory for the PAS
unit and add it to your uses clause.
