Hello, when a cyrstal report is emailed as PDF through logicity, the group tree disappears.
Is there a way to get it to show in the PDF export?
When exporting Cyrstal reports that contain group tress from within the application softwares, the PDF format keeps the grouping.
Our management really wants to see the groups in the pdf reports that are emailed to them.

Thanks,

Yes, if you are running Logicity 1.7 Pro you can utilize the 'Export Format Options' feature on the Start Menu in the SaberLogic Logicity program group to get this working. Simply locate this section of the text document this is presented:

<PortableDocFormat>
<CreateBookmarksFromGroupTree>False</CreateBookmarksFromGroupTree>
<FirstPageNumber>1</FirstPageNumber>
<LastPageNumber>999</LastPageNumber>
<PrintOnLoad>False</PrintOnLoad>
<UsePageRange>False</UsePageRange>
</PortableDocFormat>

and change it to say this:

<PortableDocFormat>
<CreateBookmarksFromGroupTree>True</CreateBookmarksFromGroupTree>
<FirstPageNumber>1</FirstPageNumber>
<LastPageNumber>999</LastPageNumber>
<PrintOnLoad>False</PrintOnLoad>
<UsePageRange>False</UsePageRange>
</PortableDocFormat>

And I believe that will give you exactly what you are looking for.

Hope this helps,
Adam
