  • Hello!

    FastReport.OpenSource.Export.PdfSimple does not render each page as an image (96 DPI by default) and embed it within the PDF.

    To resolve this issue, you can increase the DPI (within the OpenSource version) by setting `new PDFSimpleExport { ImageDpi = 300 }` (or 600, depending on the printer’s physical resolution); this will make the lines thicker.

    Alternatively, use the commercial FastReport.Export.Pdf.PDFExport (which you can test in the FastReport.Core\FastReport.Net.Demo\FastReport.Avalonia.Demo package), which saves text as vector TrueType fonts without rasterisation.
