Issues with rotated text in PDF and HTML exports

I am using FastReport components shipped with Delphi XE3. FastReport is a very good product, very functional and easy to use. I am full speed ahead converting from RAVE to FastReport.

I have just run into my first issue using the PDF and HTML export components. I have rotated text components that print perfectly, export to image formats perfectly, but the PDF format mangles the rotated text objects and the HTML export loses all the rotated text. If I print to a PDF file using PdfCreator it prints perfectly.
FastReport developers - I have an example .fr3 file and screen shots that I can provide to help you resolve the issues., just let me know where to send.

    I have changed the rotation to full 90 degrees and now the exports to PDF and HTML produce the correct results. I tried various angles such as 30, 45, 60, 75 but the exports produced incorrect results. I will live with the 90 degree rotation.

    Hal,

    I suggest you to write a ticket to FR Support Team: http://support.fast-report.com/users/sign_in

    IMO they pay close attention to different export filters in this awesome printing tool [img]style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif" style="vertical-align:middle" emoid=":)" border="0" alt="smile.gif" /> Regards Mick[/img]

    version 4.12
    - fixed bug in the PDF export in rotating texts 90, 180 and 270 degrees

    version 4.11
    - fixed bug in PDF export with underlined, struck-out and rotated texts

    version 4.9
    + added rotated text in PDF export (not bitmap)


    but i still won't get a rotated text in an exported pdf.
    Is this a known issue?

    Greetings Frank

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
