no OLE objects
no fax/mail features
no independent Designer functions, Designer objects, or DesignerActions
no custom-added variables that change their value for each page
no objects drawn using callback

There are also additional restrictions in the Web Designer if the repository mode (see also combit.Reporting.Repository) is not used:

no drilldown
no project includes
no report sections (*.toc, *.gtc, *.idx)
pictures and PDF files must be embedded in the project file
no external shapefiles
