FoxyPreviewer has long been a trusted tool in the Visual FoxPro community, offering enhanced reporting capabilities, PDF exporting, previewing, and much more. While full compatibility with VFPA32 and VFPA64 hasn't been a core development goal, many developers have asked how well FoxyPreviewer works in these environments.
I'm happy to share that:
🧩 FoxyPreviewer3 now works well with VFPA64!
There were a few reported issues in the past—ranging from minor glitches to isolated crashes—but these now appear to be resolved. In recent tests and community feedback, FoxyPreviewer has been performing normally under VFPA64, with no significant problems.

⚠️ Important note about VFPA compatibility
FoxyPreviewer is an independent project and has no direct relation to VFPA or its development.
I’m not responsible for VFPA32 or VFPA64, and users should use these versions at their own risk.
FoxyPreviewer is not officially supported in the VFPA environment, and I don’t explicitly test each new release there.
If you decide to use it with VFPA, please make sure to perform your own compatibility testing.
