Choosing a Display Format

Some display formats are best suited for particular kinds of uses. For example, you can choose to display the report as:

• An HTML page, which is optimized for display in a web browser.
• A PDF document, which is useful when you want the report to look the same whether displayed on a screen or printed.
• A DHTML file, which is HTML output that has most of the features normally associated with output formatted for printing, such as PDF or PostScript output.
• An Excel 2000 worksheet, where you can work with the data in Excel 2000 or 2003.

You can learn which display formats are available in Report Display Formats.

If you wish to send a report to a file instead of to the screen, you can learn about the file formats that are available in Saving and Reusing Your Report Output.
