You can generate the following picture formats: TIFF (TIF), BMP, GIF, JPEG (JPG), PNG, EMF. The TIFF supports multiple pages so the whole report gets converted to a single file. For other output formats one file per page is created - the file name is taken from the tcFilename parameter with _%PAGENO%.
The following table shows the mapping between extended parameters and the parameters of the SavePicture() method.
| SetOtherParams() | SavePicture() |
|---|---|
| FROM | tnFrom |
| TO | tnTo |
| BPP | tnBpp |
| JPEGQUALITY | tnJPEGQuality |
| THUMBNAILWIDTH | tnThumbnailWidth |
| THUMBNAILHEIGHT | tnThumbnailHeight |
| PAGESPERSHEET | tnPagesPerSheet |
| ALLEVENODD | tnAllEvenOdd |
| FINDSTRING | laFindString |
| TRANSPARENT (boolean) | liBacgroundMode (number) |
