Starting with version 3.0, NotesToPaper provides a number of export filters which allow any NotesToPaper report to not only be output to a printer but to be written directly to an "external" format. This export may be accomplished either by script commands or by the end-users input in the printer selection dialogue. When exporting a report to another format, the report is not shown as a preview first but written directly to the file format in question. The report creation can be influenced (via Script or the printer dialogue) in a number of ways. The report creation in "external" file formats is subject to a number of limitations, which are described in the following documents. The precise description of the possible settings of the appropriate export filters may be found under the description of the function NTPSetOption.

Automatic email distribution
The mail export filter is a special export filter. It allows the distribution of export results directly via email. The data generated by the export may be sent automatically by email programs that support the MAPI interface (e.g. Lotus Notes). This functionality is available as an add-on for all export modules and must be configured in addition to the export modules. The configuration may be accomplished either by Lotus Script or by use of the file selection dialogue of the export filter.
