Problem when saving report preview as PDF

rsaladrigas · Post by **rsaladrigas** » Wed Nov 19, 2008 7:00 am

Hi,
I have an issue when saving previews as PDF with latest version 2008.3.310.0.

The report renders fine, but when saving as PDF I get a PDF with blank pages. I can save the preview to
any other format (BMP, XPS, PNG) and they work fine.

Is there anyone else facing this issue? It seems quite a random issue, since from time to time it generates a well formed PDF with content.

Thanks in advance,

Hi.

Please send the mdc and mrt files of one of the problem files to support[at]stimulsoft.com for analysis.

mdc file format is the format of the rendered report. You can save into this format from the preview window using 'Save' button or with the following commands:

Code: Select all

report.Render(false);
report.SaveDocument("myRenderedreport.mdc");

Thank you.

Problem is fixed. Patch will be available in next prerelease build.

As a temporary solution for current version, please don't use for Watermark hatch or gradient brushes.

Thank you.

Have you tried with the latest prerelease version of 1 December 2008?

Hello,
My apologizes for asking before testing the new version.

With version 2008.3.313.0 the PDF export works, but it doesn't render the watermark at all.

We couldn't reproduce this bug.
Please send to us an mrt and mdc file of the rendered report.
This files is required for testing export.
