For every output format you choose, (Excel, Word, Notepad, PDF, HTML and XML) you have the possibility to receive the result in one of three modes: In addition to these three modes, the company logo and the report background can be added to the generated document, the report Orientation and fonts can be changed. If you wish to use a logo that belongs to a different company than the current one, changing the company number will allow this. As-Is – The report will be taken as-is into the chosen format. No fonts or configuration will be taken into account. User-Defined – The report will be exported while a pre-defined macro will run directly after it.
