How to use RareFind FastReport Export Filters?

Drop dead simple! After successfully installation, a new tab RF FastReport Export
will appear on the component palette. This tab will have several components:
RFPDFExport,
RFHTMLExport,
RFDOCExport,
RFExcelExport,
RFJPEGExport,
RFGIFExport, RFBMPExport, RFEMFExport and RFWMFExport. You can drop any or all
of these components to achieve the corresponding export capability in your
application.
Example: If you need PDF export capability in your application, just drop the PDF
export component (RFPDFExport) from the component palette to your application.
Your application will be able to save reports to PDF.
Exporting Reports Programmatically

Use the code below when you need to export reports programmatically. You would do
this when you want the export to take place on an event automatically, without the
user having to save the report through the preview window.
Delphi:
Add the Unit RfFR_Routines to the uses clause of the unit which need to Export
The example exports to PDF format:
procedure TForm1.SaveReportClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
Report.PrepareReport;
ExportToPDF(Report, 'Sample.pdf');
ExportToHTML(Report, 'Sample.htm');
ExportToDOC(Report, 'Sample.doc');
ExportToExcel(Report, 'Sample.xls');
ExportToJPEG(Report, 'Sample.jpg');
ExportToBMP(Report, 'Sample.bmp');
ExportToGIF(Report, 'Sample.gif');
ExportToWMF(Report, 'Sample.wmf');
ExportToEMF(Report, 'Sample.emf');
end;
Set SilentExport = False and ShowPropertyDialog = True, ShowProgressDialog =
True in order to show the Dialog
procedure TForm1.SaveReportClick(Sender: TObject);
begin
Report.PrepareReport;
ExportToPDF(Report, 'Sample.pdf', False, True, True);
ExportToHTML(Report, 'Sample.htm', False, True, True);
ExportToDOC(Report, 'Sample.doc', False, True, True);
ExportToExcel(Report, 'Sample.xls', False, True, True);
ExportToJPEG(Report, 'Sample.jpg', False, True, True);
ExportToBMP(Report, 'Sample.bmp', False, True, True);
ExportToGIF(Report, 'Sample.gif', False, True, True);
ExportToWMF(Report, 'Sample.wmf', False, True, True);
ExportToEMF(Report, 'Sample.emf', False, True, True);
end;

Using FastReport ExportFilters in Web Server Applications

Use the code below when you need Export Reports from a CGI Server Application.
Create a new CGI application.

Create a new form and name it ReportForm.
Drop a TFrxReport component. Drop a TRFExportPDF component.
Add an Action through the WebModule's Action Editor.
Select the new action and create an OnAction event handler. Insert the code
below for the OnAction event handler.
Double-click on TFrxReport component and design the report as you do in any
other application. Change any properties if required.
Choose Project|Options|Forms from the menu. Remove ReportForm from the
Auto-create forms list.
Add the unit of the ReportForm to the uses clause in the WebModule unit.
Add the unit RfFR_Routines to the uses clause of the WebModule unit.
Compile the application.
Run it through your web browser.
Delphi:
Add the unit RfFR_Routines to the uses clause of the WebModule unit
procedure TWebModule1.WebModule1WebActionItem1Action(Sender: TObject;
Request: TWebRequest; Response: TWebResponse; var Handled:
Boolean);
var
S: TMemoryStream;
begin
S := TMemoryStream.Create;
// REMOVE 'ReportForm' from the Auto-create forms list
with TReportForm.Create(nil) do
try
ExportToPDFInStream(frxReport1, S);
ExportToHMTLInStream(frxReport1, S);
ExportToDOCInStream(frxReport1, S);
ExportToExcelInStream(frxReport1, S);
ExportToJPEGInStream(frxReport1, S);
ExportToBMPInStream(frxReport1, S);
ExportToGIFInStream(frxReport1, S);
ExportToWMFInStream(frxReport1, S);
ExportToEMFInStream(frxReport1, S);
finally
Free;
end;
Response.ContentType := 'application/pdf';
Response.ContentStream := S;
// Do NOT free the stream,
// the response object will handle that task.
end;

Note: When exporting to HTML from a Web Server application, follow these tips:
1. Set SeparateFilePerPage property of PsRBExportHTML component to False.
2. Images, styles and script files will be created on the server. So, specify separate
folders for these files. (Otherwise, all the files will be created in the cgi-bin
directory.) Example:
RFExportHTML.ImageFolder := images;
RFExportHTML.CSSFileName := styles\myreport.css;
RFExportHTML.JavaScriptFileName := scripts\myreport.js;
Make sure these folder have READ permission.
3. The images, styles and script files that are created on the server will not be
deleted by PsRBExportDevices. Your application will have to periodically delete the
files.
Using Email and FTP

Enabling Email and FTP feature:
Follow the steps below to enable the Emailing and FTP feature in FastReport
ExportFilters.
Enable the EMailFTPWithIndy option in "PsDefines.inc" to get built-in support for
Indy Components. "PsFRDefines.inc" is located in the directory < FastReport
ExportFilters >\Source.
Re-Compile FastReport ExportFilters manually.
EMailing Reports:
Follow the steps below to EMail reports using FastReport ExportFilters.
Set EmailAfterGenerate to True.

Provide a handler for OnEMail event to set the E-Mail information which will then
be used to mail the report files. E-Mail is sent using Indy components.
FTP Reports:
Follow the steps below to FTP reports using FastReport ExportFilters.
Set FTPAfterGenerate to True.
Provide a handler for OnFTP event to set the FTP information which will then be
used for FTP. File Transfer is done using Indy components.
