Re: TIF Files From Reports (programmatic?)

I have a very unusual request.

I need to be able to generate reports and save them as TIF
files, with full programmatic control. The application will
provide the filenames. Each page of the report will be saved
as a seperate file. All the user should have to do is press a
button to generate the TIFs, without having to "touch the meat"
of viewing the report, choosing a file path/name, answering
prompts, etc.

The end client (of a client) needs TIFs rather than PDFs. TIFs
use little space, for one. There do exist facilities (such as the
non-programmatic Adobe Acrobat) that save reports as PDF files.
I need TIFs; but if the best that can be done is a programmatic
PDF exporter followed by a PDF to TIF converter; it will have
to do.

You can save to EMF see

EMF could easily be converted to TIF or may be just as good for your purpose.
