  • Hi Ray,

    Are you printing to a TextFile or a Report Emulation TextFile? A TextFile
    will only separate each value in a band by the chosen delimiter. An
    emulation textfile will try to space each text object exactly the way it <…
  • Hi Nicolas,

    This is not a known issue with ReportBuilder. If you export to a native RB
    device such as the TextFile device or Archive Device, do you still only see
    two pages? If not, this may be a Pragnaan issue. Try contact…

  • Hi Randi,

    Yes, simply set your Report.DeviceType to ArchiveFile,
    Report.AllowPrintToArchive to True, and Report.ShowPrintDialog to False.
    Then call Report.Print and you're all set.

  • Hi Harry,

    Take a look at the Report.NoDataBehaviors property. Setting this to
    ndMessageOnPage or ndBlankReport are two options that will give you the
    effect you are after.

  • Hi Nuno,

    Sorry for the delay...


    This is correct. Simply create a TppDevice object and connect its publisher
    to the report's.


    Yes, the entire PrinterSetup should be available.

  • Hi Cees,

    Are you able to recreate this issue using the PDF examples in the
    \RBuilder\Demos\1. Reports\... directory? Please upgrade to RB 9.03 and see
    if that fixes the problem.

  • Hi Rich,

    1. Please see the TppTextFileDevice topic in the ReportBuilder help on how
    to use the TextFileDevice properly. You will need to set the Save and
    SaveLength properties for this device to output a text value.
  • Hi Arturo,

    This is not a known issue with the printer device however there have been
    numerous fixes and enhancements to this object since RB 6.03. My first
    recommendation would be to download a trial version of RB 9.03 (RB 7.…
  • Hi Rich,

    The Save and SaveLength properties are part of each text object inside your
    report. You will need to set these properties for each object you would
    like exported.

  • Hi Dave,

    Which version of ReportBuilder are you using? Are you exporting to PDF
    using the native PDF device included with RB 9 or above? If so, be sure you
    are using the latest version of RB, 9.03. Also, be sure you have pp…
  • Hi Kleber,

    Which demo are you using? I do not believe we provide any demos for use
    with continuous paper printers. It is also difficult for me to recreate
    this issue on my machine due to the fact that I do not have the Epson…
  • Hi Kleber,

    This is not a known issue with ReportBuilder. RB uses the same Windows API
    commands to communicate with the printer driver for every printer. Be sure
    you are using the latest version of the LX-300+ driver.
  • Hi Kleber,

    Have you taken a look at the following article. We have many customers
    using this method successfully.

  • Hi Gianantonio,

    Take a look at Demo 109 located in the \RBuilder\Demos\1. Reports\...
    directory. This demos shows how you can use the OutputStream property to
    export directly to a Stream rather than a file.

  • Hi Thomas,

    There is no built-in feature that will save just the printer setup into a
    file. One option would be to create a blank report with the PrinterSetup
    defined and save that as a report template. This template could th…

  • Hi Ron,

    Try downloading a trial edition of RB 10.03 and see if that helps. We made
    a small fix to the way certain brush styles are rendered. I'm not sure this
    will help but it's worth a try.

    ReportBuilder uses ver…

    For future reference, we prefer you use your real name when posting to these

  • Hi Avi,

    Which version of ReportBuilder and Delphi are you using? In my testing with
    RB 10.03, I am unable to recreate this behavior.

    in problem when stopping a report Comment by nicocizik June 2006
  • Hi Debbie,

    The Paper Names are retrieved by the Windows API from your printer driver.
    I believe the Paper Type is a feature specific to the printer you are using.

    You mentioned that this only occurs with a certain report. What is
    different about this report than others that email correctly? Would it be
    possible to place this report into a simple example application that

    I have not seen this behavior before. Which email client are you using on
    your machine. The email feature was fully tested with Microsoft Outlook
    2003 and Outlook Express 6. Both of these clients are MAPI enabled a…

  • Hi Avi,

    The native PDF device does not support embedded fonts. This is the reason
    the font is not displaying properly. It has been added to our to-do list
    for a future release of ReportBuilder to add this feature.

  • Hi Jon,

    There is no OnEmail event, however if you are looking to alter the email
    message sent, you can use EmailSettings.Body property of the report.

  • Hi Jon,

    Great, I'm glad you got it working. Currently there is not an OnSendEmail
    event available. Thank you for the suggestion however. I will add this to
    our future feature list for a later release of ReportBuilder.
  • Hi Jon,

    The FileName of the emailed report can be defined by the
    EmailSettings.FileName property of the ClientReport. By default the file
    name is defined by the TppReport.PrinterSetup.DocumentName property. This
