PDF (Portable Document Format) is a platform-independent format of electronic documents created by Adobe Systems. The free Acrobat Reader package is used for viewing. This format is rather flexible – it allows the inclusion of necessary fonts, vector and bitmap images; it allows transferring and storage of documents intended for viewing and further printing.
Export method is a layered one.
When exporting to Excel, there will be a dialogue window for setting parameters of the output file:
Export parameters:
| • | "Compressed" - output file is compressed. It reduces file size but increases export time; |
| • | "Embedded fonts" - all fonts used in a report will be included into PDF file. This will significantly increase the file size; |
| • | "Background" - the page watermark will be exported as an image. This will significantly increase the file size; |
| • | "Print optimized" - output of all graphics objects (such as pictures, charts) in high resolution for further printing. |
