Hi Alan, Yes that's a known problem for the "new" Printengine of VFP9. Just do a SET REPO 80 to use the old engine, which will then produce pure textbased PDFs.
-----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: ProFox <profox-boun...@leafe.com> Im Auftrag von Alan Bourke Gesendet: Dienstag, 22. Februar 2022 12:26 An: profoxt...@leafe.com Betreff: Report to Microsoft PDF Printer creates text as images. We have a customer who when printing a particular report from a Visual Foxpro application sometimes selects the Microsoft PDF Printer (installed with MS Office). This then prompts for a PDF file to save the report output to. They then open the PDF in Acrobat Reader or whatever and need to select and copy some text from it. The problem is that sometimes the PDF is rendered as an image so no individual elements are selectable in Acrobat Reader. All fonts on the layout are standard Arial. There are no settings on the PDF printer to adjust and nothing on the VFP side that I can see would affect it. Replicating this process with the report layouts in question on my PC works fine. Has anyone ever come across this ? -- Alan Bourke alanpbourke (at) fastmail (dot) fm [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: https://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: https://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: https://leafe.com/archives This message: https://leafe.com/archives/byMID/020301d827fc$454807e0$cfd817a0$@wondzinski.de ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
