Thanks, I found the lazreport.lpk, compiled and installed it ...
After that I tried to use an example editor ...
But it is designed to work with database components, I would like to
start using simple way for a report some strings, which I have in a
Memo component.
How to make this simple report ? ( Next time may be I will try to make
report  with database )
Thanks !

I did install the package PowerPDF.
Next I did build an example MakeDoc attached to this package ...
It works and creates a .PDF file ...
I did follow this example and did try to make my application to create
a .PDF file, but there is a message in my application about this
declaration:
type
  TContentsElement = class;
the error message is:
unitpdf.pas(17,22) Error: Forward type not resolved "TContentsElement"

But this declaration works fine without any error in the original
example !!!!
I am unhappy 
Thanks!

lazreport does what you want, with or without database, you can export
to pdf, html and cvs too, look the examples

I need to make a report only to show / print 12 strings ....
No database report .... Very simple report ...
I would appreciate a small example.

LAZREPORT

DATABASE). the example is in component path of lazreport.
