Abstract Diffractive parton distributions, obtained from a next-to-leading order QCD analysis of inclusive diffractive DIS data, are convoluted with NLO QCD hard scattering matrix elements to predict cross sections at next-to-leading order for the diffractive production of jets and heavy quarks off real as well as virtual photons. The predictions are compared with recent H1 measurements of dijet production in DIS and photoprodiction as well as with diffractive D* production. The uncertainties in the diffractive pdf's as evaluated in the QCD analysis are propagated to the final state cross sections.
