Can I generate a PDF report which has a Insight 2 graph on it?
If so, is there anything different as far as the graph is concerned?
I'm trying to do this and I keep getting an Error 404.
PDF is generated using SV's template.

yes. (but make sure you copy zlib.dll and LibPng.Dll to your application folder as per both the NetTalk and Insight docs.)

Yes sir. I'm familiar with the DLL's.
The report works in a Win32 app. But, even in Win32 app, saving it as a PDF takes a LONG time! Specifically, it took 29 seconds to generate a 1 page PDF report!
So, I think something is amiss with SV's PDF generator.
My report is only one page. It should generate as PDF very quick.
Since the graph is a PNG file, maybe the SV PDF generator does not PNG's as well as JPG's?
I'll put together an example app and send to SV via PTSS.

are you putting a PNG into the report? Or are you putting an Insight control onto a report DETAIL?
If the latter, then it's not a PNG at any stage. It is however likely to be a large BMP file - which in turn will bloat the PDF (if it doesn't compress the BMP). Mentioning PNG in this context will be a red-herring.
I'll take a look at the PTSS report - probably next week <g>...

Okay, it's an Insight control on a detail band per the docs. I thought Insight generated a PNG. My apologies if that's not the case.
