In VFP 9, if you are using set reportbehavior 90, then all the document is converted as image to PDF. In similar cases we advise our customers to use Postscript simulation when using "set reportbehavior 90" specially when they are printing images in their report.

In your case it is the text that is not appearing properly, i would suggest that you try also setting Postscript simulation or using Multilanguage support when converting the document.

Hope this helps.

Hi Joan and thank you.

How I activate the Postscript simulation? Or the Multilanguage support?

Thank you for your answer.

Hello,

Multilanguage support is activated by adding the following parameters to your call of FileNameOptions or FileNameOptionsEx() or SetFileNameOptions() (depending on which interface you are using):
16 : Font Embedding
128 : Multilanguage Support
FileNameOptions = NoPrompt + UseFileName + 16 + 128 + ....

PostsriptSimulation is enabled by calling:
SetSimPostscript(hPrinter, True) (Dll Inerface)
or
SimPostScript(True) (ActiveX Interface)

You need to call SetDefaultConfig() after setting the printer configuration
