    Try in Delphi's code
    frxGlobalVariables['CopyName0'] := '';             // copy viewed in the preview
    frxGlobalVariables['CopyName1'] := 'First copy';   // 1st printed/exported copy
    frxGlobalVariables['CopyName2'] := 'Second copy';  // 2nd printed copy
    frxGlobalVariables['CopyName3'] := 'Third copy';   // 3rd printed copy
    frxReport1.ShowReport;

    I take it using the <CopyName#> variable only works if the user clicks the print button from the preview multiple times?

    It has no effect if they set the number of copies to print on the printer itself?

    Hi. I look at sample report from MainDemo (103.fr3)
    and this code
    begin
      frxGlobalVariables['CopyName0'] := '!!!';             // copy viewed in the preview
      frxGlobalVariables['CopyName1'] := 'First copy';   // 1st printed/exported copy
      frxGlobalVariables['CopyName2'] := 'Second copy';  // 2nd printed copy
      frxGlobalVariables['CopyName3'] := 'Third copy';   // 3rd printed copy
    end.
    
    works fine. But only on Standart Report.

    Then i create Dot-Matrix Report and do same.

    Actual result:
    i get <CopyName#> = frxGlobalVariables on each page (in my case its '!!!').

    Expected result:
    'First copy' - for 1 page
    'Second copy' - for 2 page and so on.

    Maybe i have to do some additional action?

    PS. I use FastReport 4.3 and 4.15, have same results.

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.
