Image Not Showing Up On Created PDF

[Thomas Swaney]

Hello Marat,

 

I have an application that I am using FRX2Any with. I think that my version is 12.12.01 but if you could check that would be good.
Basically I am trying to convert a report to a PDF that has an Picture/OLE Bound control. The image that I am trying to display in this control is not showing up in the PDF when it is converted. I have tried to set the Control source type to General field name and Expression or variable name but in either case it does not show on the PDF.

 

I prefer to use the path method if at all possible instead of storing the image in a general field in a table.

Can you please help?

 

Thanks,
Thomas Swaney

Hi Thomas

 

It depend which FRX2any Engine you use: Report Converter or Report Listener.  Report Converter has some limitation working with the OLE bounded images. Report Listener should not have such problem.

Thank you

Hello Marat,

I'm evaluating your FRX2Any Demo version - VFP 8. My company has an old version of this (we have: v12.06.01) and I want to know is this newer version is handling some PDF problems what we have.
I just checked that, to show my Report with picture in PDF, I have to change the picture relative path to Full path before:

USE (lcReportFullName) IN 0 ALIAS tmpreport

SELECT tmpreport

REPLACE picture WITH '"'+FULLPATH(picture)+'"' FOR objtype = 17 

USE

This problem is not in our version. Information: our old developer changed lot in the FRX2Any code for make a well working version so that can happen he handled this error. 
Is there any way that you handle this in this new version? Because, if we buy this, I would not like to create a temporary report what I can update to handle this issue.
I found an other issue (in our version this problem also there): if I use a field in my report with "Strech with overflow" on screen it shows well but in PDF the texts are overlapping each other with the text field below.

Is this a known issue? Will you handle this in the future?

Hi Peter

When you try to convert embedded report (included into EXE/APP) using Compiled version of FRX2Any (FRX2Any.APP) - you must exclude report form EXE/APP

by creating temp report file, and that is why you developer was doing.  

If you do not like to do that, you need initially keep reports out of EXE/APP, or update FRX2Any SINGLE edition to FRX2Any DEVELOPER edition, which you will need to compile into your APP/EXE. In the last case no report extraction (creating temp report) required.

Regards
