    Alex :

    Dear,

    Does not exist old politics of customer for the FR4?
    Making "Upgrade" of the version 2.5x for 3x in this month costs less of the one than to be old customer?
    As below:
    Price of FastReport 4

    FastReport 4 editions

    Basic $79
    Standard $179
    Professional $249
    Enterprise $349

    Upgrade from FR3 (purchase date after May 1st, 2006 is a FREE upgrade
    to the same FR4 edition)

    Upgrade Professional $139 X Professional to Enterprise $99

    If I still to make "update" of "Professional" for the version "Enterprise" in this month, cost U$ 40 less than to be old customer, and profit component still extra?

    It is this same?

    Tanks

    When export a field with AllowHTMLtag to PDF (put some text in Bold) , you will get a bitmap in the PDF.
    This encrease the PDF file size and you can not select text in the PDF.

    I tried the report number 32 from the Demo - when you export to PDF - you get one big bitmap ...
    I was expected that it will be fix in FR4. Will it be fixed ?

    Thanks, Udi

    I try quickly the demo and I've got one word in my mind : professional.
    Windows are well designed and the look is perfect.

    I try "New features > Endless page height", I preview it and I export the result to pdf. Some borders are not saved, often the right border and sometimes the bottom border.

    Thank you
    Xavier

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.
