Selecting the Auto-scaling check box adjusts the column width automatically in
PDF documents that are generated when you execute a report.
If the Auto-scaling check box is not selected, then the PDF may not display all
table columns.

The Data tab allows you to specify the location from which the data is to be
retrieved when you run the report. It also provides the option to define the Graphics

Description
Field system
The objects data is always read from the field system which ensures
that you always get the latest data.

The objects data is always read from the cache which helps generating
reports more quickly.
Field system older than…
The age of the data entered is compared to the age of the data in the
cache. If the data in the cache is older than the value entered, it is
obtained from the field system; otherwise the data from the cache
displays.
NOTE:
If you have selected any of the options from the Table group box, the same option
is also selected in the Condition Filter dialog box. Any change in selection reflects
in the Condition Filter dialog box as well. However, if you change your selection in
the Condition Filter dialog box, it does not reflect in the Table group box options of
the Data tab.
Graphics Group Box
When All Related Graphics is selected, the related graphics and view ports of an
object display in Run mode. To view the graphics and view ports, you must assign
the object as a Name filter to the graphics plot.
