ImageResolution Property (PdfExport)

Gets or sets the image resolution for the PDF export if a metafile is used as an image for the picture control or if the Page.DrawPicture api is used.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public Property ImageResolution As Integer

public int ImageResolution {get; set;}

Remarks

Typical values are 75-2400 dpi. 75 dpi at low resolution would be used to save space, 150 dpi is used for normal screen viewing and 300 dpi and higher is used for print quality. Use this property in combination with ImageQuality (highest) to yield the best results when exporting Windows metafiles (.wmf and .emf). Neither property has any effect on other image types.

Example

private void btnExport_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
    rptDataDynamics rpt = new rptDataDynamics();
    DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Export.Pdf.PdfExport p = new DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Export.Pdf.PdfExport();
    p.ImageResolution = 300;
    p.ImageQuality = DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Export.Pdf.ImageQuality.Highest;
    rpt.Run();
    this.arv.Document = rpt.Document;
    p.Export(rpt.Document, Application.StartupPath + "\\p.pdf");
}

Visual Basic

Private Sub btnExport_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
    Dim rpt As New rptDD
    Dim p As New DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Export.Pdf.PdfExport
    p.ImageResolution = 300
    p.ImageQuality = DataDynamics.ActiveReports.Export.Pdf.ImageQuality.Highest
    rpt.Run()
    Me.Viewer1.Document = rpt.Document
    p.Export(rpt.Document, Application.StartupPath & "\p.pdf")
End Sub
