Printing with Lazarus
« on: October 17, 2016, 02:21:46 pm »
I have looked around and found the wiki for Lazarus suggesting using the Printer4Lazarus package.
Looking in the packages to install, I see printers4lazide and Printer4Lazarus 0.5.
However, the 1.6 version of Lazarus already has printersetup, printerdialog and pagesetup available.

How should I proceed ?
Long term I want to take values from a database table, format it an invoice and print it.

Thanks for guidance.

Have you tried LazReport?

Thanks Handoko, a useful link.
I always forget the term "report" when referring to printing.
