Thank you after a lot of conversation with support we came to the same conclusion I posted another question and attached my review response to them I am attaching the letter to you. In my mind they only had to say you cannot save a register to PDF you must do it in quick report I am fine with that the automated question should have told me that very simple put it as solution one if some one types in can not save as PDF or how to save to PDF which I asked those very questions.
