Any third party component to load compressed Tiff files into RB?

rbuser

Greetings All,

I am still evaluating Report Builder. I really like what I have seen so far
and basically need one more item to make a this the report component for me.

I need the ability to load a compressed tiff file into a component that is
compatible with Report Builder. It would really be nice if I could simply
drop this component onto a report builder form at design time, then at
design or run time simply use a LoadFromFile statement to load the tiff from
file I would like to print. Of course the component would need to work with
multi-page tiffs and be able to print one page or a range of pages in the
multi-page tiff. My tiff files are 1 bit.

Is there such a component already available? If not anyone have any idea
how difficult it would be to create one?

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much.

Greetings Alexander,

I did have ImageLib Corp Suite v5 for several years, but had too many issues
that went unresolved from this vendor, do I decide to switch to Pegasus
Tools ImageXpress Pro.

Can I use ImageXpress Pro with Report Builder Pro?

Thanks

Mike

You should be able to user ImageXpress to load the image data at runtime
using one of the event handlers that fires before the report image component
prints.
