Export in Desktop Viewers

In This Topic

Your application with the ActiveReports Viewer can contain any exports with any available dialogs. You can export your reports from ActiveReports Viewers to various formats, depending on the report type. This topic discusses all possible export options.

Note: As export options are customizable, the Export dialog may display a different list of export options.

To export a report in the Viewer, go to File menu and select Export (Ctrl+E).

Below you can find full information on properties of each export format option.

Portable Document Format (PDF)

Portable Document Format (PDF) is a format recommended for printing and for preserving formatting.

PDF is considered as the best format for printing and it also supports interactive features like Document Map, Bookmarks and Hyperlinks. However, in case you have any data hidden (like in a drill-down report) at the time of rendering, it does not show up in the output.

Microsoft Excel WorkSheet (XLS, XLSX)

You can export excel files in two formats: Xls and Xlsx. XLSX is a format that opens in Microsoft Excel as a spreadsheet. This export does not render reports exactly as they appear in the Viewer due to inherent differences in the formats. The XLSX export filter has a number of useful properties that allow you to control your output.

Reports rendered in Excel support a number of interactive features like Bookmarks and Hyperlinks. However, in case you have any data hidden at the time of rendering (like in a drill-down report), it does not show up in the output. It is recommended that you expand all toggle items prior to rendering.

Microsoft Excel WorkSheet - Data (CSV, XLSX)

You can export excel files in two formats, Xlsx and Csv.

Excel Data exports only data from Tablix, Table, and Matrix data regions, preserving the data region structure and ignoring layout-related features (page break, cumulative total, etc). Other controls and data regions of the original report are ignored at this export.

Note: If a report does not contain any data region (Table or Tablix), a Csv file is not generated.

For the Xlsx format, when a report has multiple data regions, each data region is exported to a separate excel sheet.

For the Csv format, a separate CSV file is created for each data region, available in the report.

Microsoft Word Document (DOC, DOCX)

You can export Page reports and RDLX reports to Microsoft Office Open XML (OOXML) format (.Docx) or Word HTML format (.Doc) using the FileFormat property.

The Word HTML format (.Doc) provides greater layout accuracy for Page and RDLX Reports in Microsoft Word, while the OOXML format (.Docx) provides excellent editing experience for the exported reports.

Note: OOXML and Word HTML formats have a great difference: while Word HTML is almost WYSIWYG, OOXML allows editing and has a number of limitations. To learn about the limitations for both Word HTML and OOXML, see Word Export.

The OOXML format (.Docx) is recommended in the following scenarios:

Open exported reports in a wide range of applications: You can open and modify the exported Word document in any of the following applications.
- Microsoft Office 2013+
- Microsoft Office for Mac 2016+
- iWork and Pages for OS X (all supported versions)
- LibreOffice
- Google Quickoffice for Android
- Documents Free (Mobile Office Suite) by SavySoda for iOS

Customize reports after exporting: Positioning and arrangement of report elements in the exported document is implemented using the OOXML format (.Docx) which provides a natural document flow for editing the exported documents.
Use Word automation features: With support for automation features in the OOXML format (.Docx), tasks that previously required manual adjustments in the exported Word document are now handled automatically. Report elements such as page header and footer, expressions, heading levels, and table of contents are automatically transformed to the OOXML format (.Docx).
Set compatibility mode: You can render a report as a Word document that is compatible with Microsoft Word 2007, 2010, or 2013 using the DocumentCompatibleVersion property from the export settings.

By default, a separate file is created for each page in a report and an index to each corresponding file name is added (for example, image001.PNG, image002.PNG, etc).

Reports rendered as images do not support any of the interactive features of ActiveReports reports. Any data hidden at the time of export is hidden in the image.

Note: To render the entire report as a single image, set the Pagination property to False.

Hypertext Markup Language (HTML)

HTML, or hypertext markup language, is a format that opens in a Web browser. You can export your reports to HTML format. It is a good format for delivering content because virtually all users have an HTML browser.

Reports rendered in HTML support a number of interactive features. Hyperlinks, Bookmarks and Drill through links can be rendered to HTML. However, Document Maps are not available in this format. For a drill down report, make sure that the data you want to display is expanded before rendering, otherwise it renders in the hidden state.

Note: HTML is not the best format for printing. Use the PDF rendering extension instead.

HTML Rendering Properties

Property	Description

MIME Hypertext Markup Language (MHT)

The MHT file extension refers to MIME HTML documents, a format for archiving web pages saved by web browsers, including Internet Explorer and Firefox. MHT files can contain resources like images, flash, java, audio, external links and html code. At that, MHT files contain all elements within a single file.

MHT Rendering Properties

Property	Description
Fragment	Set to True to return only the contents inside the body tags (to embed it within a Web page). Set to False to return the full HTML text.
Output TOC	Indicates whether to include a table of contents, if available, in the exported report.
Mode	Select Paginated to render each page as a section inside the HTML document, with page headers and footers. The Galley mode renders one long page with a single page header and footer.
Link Target	Enter a value of a target for hyperlinks contained inside a report. A value of _blank opens a new window; _self opens in the same window.

Rich Text Format (RTF)

Note: The RTF export, otherwise supported only in Section reports, is possible in Page/RDLX reports too since this export uses the section report document (RDF format) internally.

RTF Rendering Properties

Property	Description

Xml Rendering Properties

Property	Description
Encoding	Select the encoding schema to use in the XML transformation.
XslStylesheet	Select the existing XSL Stylesheet file to use to transform the resulting XML file. Note: When using the XslStylesheet option, be sure to save the file in the correct file format, such as HTML.

Text Print (TXT)

Text Print is a format recommended for printing the reports with Table and Tablix data regions in the tabular format, preserving the grouping, layout, and formatting.

Xml Rendering Properties

Property	Description
CharHeight	Specifies the character height in points.
CharWidth	Specifies the character width in points.
