To speed up the export of the rendered report, we recommend you use several ordinary components instead of the RichText component. A shape is often exported to other formats such as picture, which significantly increases the volume of the exported report. Graphic primitives are vertical and horizontal lines, rectangles that are used to create borders of components. mdc report file can be larger.Įxporting reports can be faster and easier when you can use graphic primitives instead of the more "heavy" component Shape. Therefore, when you use the Table component, time for the report creation may increase, and the size of the.
In the table, an empty cell is not empty and processing and storage requires additional time and resources. For example, for an empty column you may not add a text component, there is no need to merge cells, etc. The Data band component is more flexible in using (although more complex) that allows you to create a more optimized template. When rendering a complex report, for example, a table with blank columns, merged with cells in the header and footers etc. When rendering a simple report as a solid table, there is no significant difference between the Table and Data band components, in mdc-files. In the process of rendering a report, the report engine itself decomposes the Table into a Header, Data band, and Footer. The Table is a complex component that is based on the Data band. The data can be output from the data source in a report using the Table component or the Data band. This will reduce the number of rows and columns in the output file as in the previous section. This will help to avoid the very small gaps between components (some formats "do not like", when columns of the table are obtained by a very small size) - Place components in a Data band at the same level.
The image below shows it very clearly: when exporting, the report on the left will have 25 cells, and the report on the right - only 3. This will reduce the number of rows and columns in the ready file. Therefore, when using a table export mode, it is recommended to use the following tips: - Use the button Align to Grid. Otherwise, you cannot display a lot of components scattered across the page. But are they superfluous? After all, each cell corresponds to the border of any component on the page. When exporting reports, our users are often facing with many extra columns in the Excel table. Today we will share you some tips to help you be able to not only significantly improve the appearance of the final report, but also reduce the amount of resources used, as well as speed up work with reports.

In the previous article of this series we dealt with the theme of creating reports, but as the work with reports does not end with its rendering, so optimization does not end with optimization processes when designing reports.
