Visual BasicCopy Code
Private Sub Viewer1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Viewer1.Load
    Dim rpt As New rptDD
    rpt.Run()
    Me.Viewer1.Document = rpt.Document
    Dim h As New DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Export.Html.HtmlExport
    h.CharacterSet = DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Export.Html.HtmlCharacterSet.Big5
    h.Export(rpt.Document, Application.StartupPath + "/export.html")
End Sub

Remarks

The default character set is UTF8. Setting this property will change the meta tag in the header of the resulting HTML pages to the appropriate IANA character set value.

For example: <META content="text/html;charset=ISO-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type>.

Additionally, the inner text portion of the pages will be encoded according to the specific character set's encoding rules and font names. If you are exporting a Document without headers (IncludeHtmlHeader=false), then you must insert the appropriate meta tag to ensure that the browser knows how the text is encoded.
