Hi,
I've reportbuilder enterprise 17.01 I use intraweb and when I create a
pdf file in stand alone application (.EXE) works fine, but the same
application built like isapi it creates a pdf file with bad format.
I've set printername = default and
PDFSettings.EmbedFontOptions.efAllFonts = True
but I've tried with other setting but the result is always the same
I've to install something on the web server?
Can you help me?

    Hi Stefano,

    Two main differences with a web app.

    - typically runs under a different windows user account, so make sure that
    user account has the required rights, drivers, resources

    - web apps are multi-threaded, each request is handled in a thread.

    Here is a simple example that shows how to use RB to generate a PDF in a web
    app.

    FormatSettings.TimeSeparator := '.';
    FormatSettings.DecimalSeparator := ',';

    Sorry the two lines are
    // FormatSettings.DecimalSeparator := ',';
    // FormatSettings.ThousandSeparator := '.';

    Hi Stefano,

    When updating FormatSettings, also update RB's ppFormatSettings

    example:

    uses
    ppUtils;

    begin

    FormatSettings.DecimalSeparator := ',';
    FormatSettings.ThousandSeparator := '.';

    ppFormatSettings := FormatSettings;

    // or this..

    // ppFormatSettings.DecimalSeparator := ',';
    // ppFormatSettings.ThousandSeparator := '.';

    end;
