How to Customize Report Items Based on RenderFormat in Bold Reports
RenderFormat in Bold Reports plays a crucial role in determining how reports are presented and delivered to users. It refers to the various output formats or file types in which reports can be rendered, such as PDF, Excel, Word, HTML, and more.
Conditional formatting further enhances the visual presentation of reports by allowing you to dynamically modify the appearance of report elements based on specific conditions. With Bold Reports, you have the flexibility to apply conditional formatting rules across different RenderFormats. This means that you can control the visibility, color, size, and other properties of report items in different formats, such as PDF, Excel, and Word.
*Expression: The following expression is used to find the rendering format of a report.

In the following example, we have demonstrated the difference between the Page Layout and Print Layout of the same report. Similarly, in all exports, the values change accordingly.
