XFRX version 15.1
Release date: 5 Sep 2014
New features
New output type: Native Excel (xlsx) output
The Excel application is not required and does not need to be installed to generate the documents. There are currently two output options: NATIVE_FXLSX and NATIVE_PFXLSX (plain layout). NATIVE_PFXLSX, the plain layout, usually provides the best layout results, minimizing the number of rows and columns in the output document, but the layout may not be up to the pixel exactly the same as the source report. NATIVE_FXLSX generates more accurate layout but the resulting number of columns and rows may be higher.
New output types: DOC2PDF and FDOC2PDF - saves the output to DOC and then exports to PDF via Word. Word 2007 or newer is required
