The function must have saved test.jpg before creating test.pdf. Check the quality of test.jpg

On Fivewin there is a function FWJPGTOPDF that write basic PDF with the jpg, can you try
Code: Select all  Expand view
procedure WndToPdf( oWnd, cPdf )

   local cJpg  := cFileSetExt( cPdf, "jpg" )
   local oPrn

   oWnd:SaveAsImage( cJpg, 100 )

   FwJpgToPdf(cJpg, cPdf)

return


edit: it comes stretched.

Code: Select all  Expand view
FwJpgToPdf(cJpg, cPdf)

I did not propose this because of the problems in resizing the image.
This works well if the proportions of the image fit into the paper size.

I see, the problem is that calls PGJPEG1 with the size of the page, instead of with the size of image... it is should be quick fix... maybe with the new lib haru interface, is possible create a pdf without change the quality of jpg

The proposed function, if used with haru, will produce better results.

Add this at the beginning the program
Code: Select all  Expand view

REQUEST FWHARU
 

and anywhere in the program
Code: Select all  Expand view

TPrinter():lUseHaruPDF := .t.
 


With these two changes, the same function I posted will give better results.
