FlexViewer lets you export the reports to different file formats. The viewer control transforms the information in the report into a device-specific/application-specific format.

The Tools group in the FlexViewer ribbon provides the Export Tool, which when clicked invokes the Export to Report file dialog, so that you can save the report to the required file format.

By default FlexViewer exports reports to the following formats:

• Comma Separated Values (.csv)
• Adobe PDF (.pdf)
• HTML Document (.html)
• Open XML Word (.docx)
• RTF Document (.docx)
• Open XML Excel (.xlsx)
• Compressed Metafiles (.zip)
• Image Files:
  • TIFF (.tiff)
  • BMP (.bmp)
  • PNG (.png)
  • JPEG (.jpg)
  • GIF (.gif)
