Report components
Components extract information from workspaces and insert that information into reports. Components are copies of information in PDF or RTF format.
Most of the displays of workspace information have corresponding report components. The following displays do not have corresponding components:
relational graphs
the workspace information frame
the verify integrity frame
HTML information that is generated by the LinkInfo business rule.
Most components extract information from one view.
