RB_LibTiffDelphi Question

rbuser

I currently use EzDoc to print Tiff files from Rbuilder. I'd like to
simplify this process by replacing ExDoc with RB_LibTiffDelph but am
not having much luck.

I've looked at the RbWiki examples and while these show useful
solutions, i.e. I will need to compress the TIFF files, they assume
you already know how to print the TIFF file.

If someone could point me to an example of using RB_LibTiffDelphi to
print a TIFF file it wouild be greatly appreciated.

I'm using Delphi 7 and Rbuilder 14.08.

Thanks

Hi Craig,

I first suggest taking a look at the following article/example. This
shows how to export a report as an image and includes a TIFF example.
To enable the TIFF example, you will need to download and copy the
RB_LibTiffDelphi.zip files to your library path.

I also suggest you take a look at the Windows Imaging Component (WIC)
device we include with RB. This does not require a separate library to
export reports to TIFF format. Use it by simply adding the ppWICDevice
to your uses clause and printing to file (TIFF format).

For future reference, please use your real name in the "from" field of
newsgroup messages instead of your email.
