Export Group

The Export group on the Preview tab of the Ribbon contains options for exporting the report to various formats and appears similar to the following image:

 

 

Each item in the Export group opens the Export Report to File dialog box where you can choose a location for your exported file. The Export group consists of the following options:

      Pdf: Exports the document to a PDF file. The drop-down arrow includes options for PDF (system fonts) and PDF (embedded fonts) to choose if you want to use system fronts or embed your chosen fonts in the PDF file.

      Html: Exports the document to an HTML file. You can then copy and paste this text to another application. The drop-down arrow includes options for Plain HTML, Paged HTML, and Drilldown HTML allowing you to choose if you want to export to a plain HTML file, multiple HTML files that can be paged using included arrow links, or an HTML file that displays content that can be drilled down to.

      Excel: Exports the document to a Microsoft Excel file. The drop-down arrow includes options for Microsoft Excel 97 and Microsoft Excel 2007 – OpenXML allowing you to choose if you want to save the document as an XLS or XLSX file.

      Rtf: Exports the document to a Rich Text File (RTF).

      Text: Exports the document to a Text file (TXT).

      More: Clicking the More drop-down arrow includes additional options to export the report including: Tagged Image File Format (export as TIFF), RTF (fixed positioning), Single Page Text, Compressed Metafile (export as ZIP).

Note: When a document is exported to the RTF or the DOCX formats with the "preserve pagination" option selected, text is placed in text boxes and the ability to reflow text in the resulting document may be limited.
