  Hi, whenever I try to use my application on a client's computer I get the error message "Canvas Does not Allow Drawing." This happens only when I try to print a Report using fastreport 3. I use InstallShield and have included all fastreport libraries.
  
  Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

  
  I know this is VERY old post, but thought I would just advise as it is the only valid page on the subject when doing a search on Google. It seems that your c: drive needs to have a temp folder, in order for the canvas to be drawn, there must be read&write permissions on the folder too.

  This is VERY old post, but still actual. It is important to have some default printer on your system - but NOT Fax!

  This is a very old post but have helped me lot.
  The only thing I needed to do was to run RAD Studio XE2 as Administrator.
  All fixed!
