Using RunReport to pdf makes ugly pdf
Kristaps Žogots

Operating system: macOS
Linux server. If we execute following code (it runs Profit & Loss report to pdf file):

ReportDefaults(RepSpec,"ResRClass");
RepSpec.repname = "ResRn";
RepSpec.Media = mtPdf;
RunReport(RepSpec,0);

it will end up with a different format (bad looking - wrong fonts, no left margin) comparing to what you would get if you run the report from client with Media type Pdf.

The only big difference that I see is that running to media from rep. specification window is using the client, but my example code runs on server.

The question is: is it possible to run the report to pdf from HAL on server and get a good looking pdf (as if we create it from rep. specification window media pdf)?

Hello Kristaps!

It's difficult to say. Can you report a bug with steps to repeat so that me or some other programmer can debug it?

Best Regards,
David D.
