MS Access Forum / Reports / Printing / November 2007MS Access Reports
I have some very complex MS Access Reports (some text, several charts) that I normally export as Snapshot files. Now we are starting to use a 3M overhead monitor (Digital Sinage Portal). It does not handle snp files, it is limited to html, xml, htm, gifs, jpg and some txt files. What is the simplest way to turn my reports into something that this DS Portal can use. I tried exporting them as Access Data Pages, but they can not export the charts. What are the possible solutions? Personally, I would buy a full version of Adobe Acrobat. Print the Report to PDF Load the PDF docs into Acrobat and SaveAs to Jpeg format A no frills/no cost method would be to print to the Microsoft Office Image Document Writer. Load the doc into the MODI viewer app and SaveAs TIFF. Now load the TIF image into your favourite Paint application and convert to the desired final Image format. Another low cost method would be to purchase a Virtual Printer Driver that supports output to JPEG/Tif whatever. I was going to produce a Report to Bmp/Jpg converter but I've decided to give the new MS XPS doc format a look.

What are the possible solutions? Get SnagIt from TechSmith http://www.techsmith.com/screen-capture.asp. You can print to your SnagIt printer and then save it as JPG. SnagIt has a ton of functionality for a very small price.
