Re: [DUG]: Emailing Invoices

HTML gets displayed by pretty much anything, and it comes up nice in outlook express and the like. (ie, most email apps these days). Just cleaner, IMO. But thats just me.   N ----- Original Message ----- From: Mark Howard To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Sent: Tuesday, October 23, 2001 3:06 PM Subject: Re: [DUG]: Emailing Invoices Stacey / Craig / Nic   Thanks for the suggestions.   We do have a QR report viewer, but would prefer to use a format that can be read by anybody.   I assume all Stacey's 'filter options' require QR Professional?   Not sure what is involved in the PDF printer option.  Do you buy a virtual PDF printer driver that converts any file sent to this "printer" to PDF format?   Have had a look at the Praagan and the Waler sites.   Before spending the US$79 on Praagan I'd need to be convinced that I wasn'y about to convert to FastReport (and I'm not convinced of that).   Has anyone else had any experience with TExtraFilters (US$25) and can tell us what they thought of it?   Nic - why do you suggest HTML rather than RTF?  What are the advantages as you see them?   Thanks again for the input.   Mark     ----- Original Message ----- From: Stacey Verner To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Sent: Tuesday, October 23, 2001 2:24 PM Subject: RE: [DUG]: Emailing Invoices - We wrote a small app (less than 1mb) that shows a QR preview, and allows you to load files, which our clients are free to distribute. - Use the XL export filter? - Take a look at the QR HTML export filter (http://195.12.232.172/) - Wait for the QR PDF export filter. - Print to a PDF printer and distribute the PDF file.   Stacey   -----Original Message----- From: Mark Howard [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Tuesday, 23 October 2001 2:18 p.m. To: Multiple recipients of list delphi Subject: [DUG]: Emailing Invoices Hi   Currently using Quick Reports (still).   A client site has decided that they want to email their invoices to customers?   Currently if you just export the report to a text file from the preview screen and then load it into Word the result is ugly, even if you turn it to landscape to stop the line wrapping.   What are the options?   TIA   Mark   (Is this the final push to switch to Fast Report?)
