Does anyone have an idea? (FastReport & uniHTMLMemo)

[Schlingel]

Hy

 

I use Fastreport to create PDF's from a UniGui-Application.

 

Actuall I have the problem that I would like to bring the contents of a uniHTMLMemos in my "Fastreport" Pdf-Pages.

 

BUT... https://www.fast-report.com/en/documentation/frx3user/Creating%20reports/HTML-tags%20in%20the%20%27Text%27%20object.htm

 

You can see that the supported HTML-Tags are very limited. (Fonts, Size, Listings etc..)

 

 

 

Now is my Idea, before create the Report print the content of my uniHTMLMemo to a Picture (.png, jpb..) and add this to my PDF Report.

 

My questions:

 

1.) It is possible to save the content of a uniHTMLMemo(with the dimensions) to a picture at server-side?

     similarly: UniSession.AddJs(UniHTMLMemo10.jsname+'.iframeEl.dom.contentWindow.print();');

 

    

2.) is there a possibility to get the HTML tags String in an image file?

 

3.) Does anyone have a better idea for my problem?

With http://wkhtmltopdf.org/ you can convert html to a pdf or image on server side.

 

But if you use image:

- the size will be big

- you can't search for text in PDF

- the font will not scale (can look terrible)

 

But you can make the complete report with html and then use wkhtmltopdf or you make 2 PDFs (from report and html) and then merge them.

@ Oliver Morsch

Thank you for your suggestion.

-> I intend for many reasons solve the problem directly in the application unigui.

a.) I will use a simple memo in the first step.

b.) In the next step I will even generate my report with https://parall.ax/products/jspdf and http://fabricjs.com/.

 

 

I would be glad if there would be a better solution.
