Re: Cutlines im Report

dann versuch mal die Knoten (Kurven) einer EMF zu bearbeiten und häng die Datei an... Eine EMF ist definitiv keine Vektordatei, den Du mit einem Plotter schneiden kannst. Und darauf verwette ich meinen Allerwertesten :o)

Aus der Microsoft EMF Specification (http://download.microsoft.com/download/a/e/6/ae6e4142-aa58-45c6-8dcf-a657e5900cd3/%5BMS-EMF%5D.pdf):

"1 Introduction
This is a specification of the Enhanced Metafile Format (EMF) structure, a Microsoft proprietary interface. The EMF structure specifies a metafile format that can store a picture in device-independent form. The stored picture can be rendered by parsing and processing the metafile.
An EMF metafile is a series of variable-length records, called EMF records, which contain graphics drawing commands, object definitions and properties. The metafile begins with a header record, which includes ths metafile version, its size, the resolution of the device on which the picture was created, and the dimensions of the picture. An EMF metafile is "played back" when its records are converted to a format understood by a specific graphics device. The image defined in an EMF structure maintains its dimensions, shape, and proportions on any output device, including printers, plotters, desktops, or in the client areas of applications."

So, und die Stichwörter "drawing commands", "object definitions", "played back" und "maintains [...] on any output device" klingt für mich definitiv NICHT nach einem Bitmapformat, sondern beschreibt exakt das, was man allgemeinhin unter einem Vektorformat versteht.

Mir wurscht, ob Du das jetzt kapierst oder nicht, aber die Behauptung, EMF wäre kein Vektorformat ist schlichtweg falsch, sorry.
