What customers say about the Icetips Previewer
My users love the Icetips Previewer! One of the best updates I have made to the software. They are very happy with how it works and what they can do with it. It was easy to install and set up and get going.

Works with just about everything!
The Icetips Previewer fully supports the Clarion 6 Report Target templates to export the reports to PDF, HTML, XML or TXT. It can also be used with CPCS reports and can coexist with both CPCS and RPM previewers. The Icetips Previewer is now compatible with the target outputs in both CPCS and Fomin Report Builder. The Previewer is compatible with PDF-Tools to produce PDF files directly from the previewer. It is also compatible with Fomin Report Builder as well as the Target output in Fomin. In Version 2.2 we have added support for ReportDAT from Clarion Central.

We have all had to deal with report preview issues in Clarion. That is exactly why we designed our Icetips Previewer to be not only an excellent previewer, but also 100% customizable! The previewer is created as a procedure in your application. No external source files, no external black boxes. The previewer procedure is a window procedure with all the code and controls that make it a previewer, ready for you to change if you want to! But just because you can change it doesn't mean you ever want to!

Powerful
The Previewer comes with a nice set of standard functionality that you can add to if you need to. This includes searching, tagging pages to print by tagging them in the page list and also by using standard ranges such as "All" "Odd" 1-5,6,7,9-10 etc. Number of copies can be specified even for printers that do not support it. You can zoom in and out in specified steps. The Icetips Previewer comes with a 85 page PDF manual, which you can download. You can also download a demo application.

Fully customizable
You can change everything! You can even have more than one previewer in your application with different looks or functionality - remember you are in charge here and you decide what it is going to do and how it is going to look!

All the code included
The Previewer comes with all the code that makes it a report previewer. All code is either created as embedded code in your application or provided as class files, for example the Mouse Wheel support. No black boxes, no hidden code, no compiled Clarion classes or DLLs.
