Hello,

I'm having a real problem with outputs. It would be nice if there was an output format (Excel, PDF, HTML, etc.) that looked EXACTLY like the previewer, but there isn't. Half the output formats don't work at all, and those that do work look absolutely horrible (grid lines missing, table misaligned, etc.).

I want to focus on one output type only for now. What would you recommend I focus on? And what can I do to minimize the differences between what the report looks like in the previewer and what it looks like in this format?

Thanks.

Hi, i think you should focus on PDF output, which is currently the closest format from what we see in the viewer. Generally powerpoint outputs have a good quality too.

Excel output is not so bad for simple stuff, such a report with a single data table.
