  • I'm with LurkingKiwi on this. The problem with float does not come in the way you "write it", but in the way it is stored or manipulated which is most of the time out of the programmer's control. Comparing fixed value might be working for you at the…
  • At the moment I am avoiding the problem by using a JPG made from the WMF using an image manipulation software. It is inconveniant, but it works. Good to know that FR V6 has reworked the code.

  • The GroupFooter is the clean way to do it. It takes less than two minutes to configure and it works as a charm. The reason why I even suggested the option #2 is because you said you wanted to put this information in a page footer. However, I do a…
  • Very interesting. Please inform us if you find more.
  • As far as I know, you don't need to distribute any packages. All the required sources are included in the application during the compile.
  • The field in your PageFooter will always print the value for the current record. FastReport do a DataSet.Next to navigate in all the data when printing your DataBand. When you only have one record, it stays on the same record after the DataSet.Ne…

  • If you get a date error using the first code snippet, it is most likely because your string ( '26-12-2015' ) is not valid. Did you try to use a date that is in the format of the computer? I know my computer date format is "yyyy-mm-dd" and when I use…

  • I thought you were using DatumMontag as a script variable, but you are using it as a report variable. In your case, you need to use the method Get : procedure GroupHeader1OnBeforePrint(Sender: TfrxComponent); begin Set ('DatumMontag','''26-12-201…
  • I forgot to clarify that the code above will always work (even in batch printing). Since in your example you are not printing in a batch, you could simply assign the text 'Page [Page#] of [TotalPages#]' to the MemoView in the start of the report. It…
  • When you want to do page numbering using the event/scripts, you need to set the Report.EngineOptions.DoublePass to true (it can be done by selecting the report in the report tree and by using the object inspector to change the properties. When Do…
  • If you want to use the variable DatumMontag, you need to remove the quote. Those quotes means that the text inside is not a variable, but the string that you are trying to convert as a date. Do as follow : StrToDate(DatumMontag)
  • I did not do much testing with large image size, but you can try to test if changing the following properties help to reduce the PDF size. frxPDFExport.Compressed (If True... output file is compressed, file-size is reduced but export time is incr…
  • Since all the record of your dataset are printed at the same time (when the job is sent to the screen or the printer), I would update the PrintDate for all record at once after the report is done printing. If you really want to update the data di…
  • If I understand correctly, you prepare only one generic copy of the report that you show to the user using FastReport default preview form. Then, the user use the print button on that form and select a number of copy on the dialog that open. Then, y…

  • I get the same problem using the version 5.1.8 for Delphi 2010. Sometimes the logo is exported but not as it should be. Also, the PDF is very large in size (6.11 MB instead of 211 KB).
  • I found the solution... and it is so simple that I am disapointed the support couldn't reply. It seems they have removed the FPreview.Init from the TfrxReport.SetPreview between FastReport version 5.1.1 and 5.1.5. It is now necessary to call a TfrxR…
  • Thank you for the information. Did they inform you if they would fix the bug? During the last year, I developped printing routines that use this specific feature (preparing a report and allowing the user to send it to different destinations af…
