headers and footers

Post by DelphiDude »

is the only way to produce headers and footers done like the demo project for printing headers. 7-richviewedits and 7 rvstyles.
can it be done with 1 richviewedit and 7 rvstyles?

If you use TRichViewEdit - yes, you need a component to store each header and footer.
If you do not need visual components, you can use TRVReportHelper, and store headers and footers in RVReportHelper.RichView.

If you want everything in a single component, consider using ScaleRichView. A single TSRichViewEdit contains both the main document and all headers and footers.

I have a client that has a bunch of RTF files, some with headers and footers. They want to be able to run my program to read these RTF files and replace select text within them, then save them back as RTF or DOC doesn't matter as long as the file can be opened in WORD. They are going to run my program to load, search & replace, save and then email it to their another user, to open and edit as needed or just print if no changes. the end users have WORD and the server i am working on does not have WORD.

Would have need to replace text in headers as well.
Prefer that the RTF change be hidden but doesn't have to be.
