  Added full support for Embarcadero Rad Studio XE2 for 32-bit
  and 64-bit compilers

+ added export of Excel formulas in BIFF export
  A report can contain memos starting with the "=" sign followed by an Excel formula. These memos are exported as formulas to an xls file. Export of
formulas is controlled by the TfrxBIFFExport.ExportFormulas property. Read more about this in our blog

+ added converter from Rave Reports - ConverterRR2FR.pas
  A module that allows conversion ofRave Report reports to FastReport format
  
+ added Cross.KeepRowsTogether property
  This property allows the display of whole row data (within nested rows) on
  one page without breaking it

+ added export of external URLs in PDF export
  A component on a report can have an external URL assigned to it, like "https://fast-report.com". These components are exported to PDFs as clickable areas

+ added property DataOnly to exports.
  The DataOnly property can filter out non-data report components when exporting. This allows the export of only those components that are considered to bedata

+ optimized merging of cells in BIFF export
  BIFF export has been optimized for certain kind of reports containing many memos which must be represented as several Excel cells

+ picture format in all exports switched to PNG
The default format for exported pictures has become PNG.
For example, if a report contains pictures and is exported to RTF, then the resultant RTF file will contain PNG pictures.
The PNG format is necessary to reduce the data size of exported pictures and increase their quality
