priting problem

Former Member — Fri, 28 Apr 2006 11:23:31 GMT

Hi experts,

I have developed one report in smartforms and trying to printout on

Dot matrix printer.

When iam printing report(i have 5 pages) ,iam getting fine for first two pages.But third page onwords...

few lines of third page are getting printed in second page and forth page details are getting printeed in third page....and so on.....So reporting is moving up.

for example


---------------- first page
record1
record2
reocrd3
record4
record5
---------------- secode page
record1
record2
reocrd3
record4
record5

<b>record1
---------------- third page</b>
record2
reocrd3
record4
record5

<b>record1
record2
---------------- forth page</b>
reocrd3
record4
record5

<b>record1
record2
reocrd3
---------------- fifth page</b>
record4
record5

It is moving up....

Actually it should get printed 5records on each page.

Can any one tell me what might be the problem...!!!

Reward guaranteed

thanks

In the main window for the table or text element, put a page-protect for the records you wnat to be in single page.

Hi,

I guess you are talking about printing using a SMART Form.

Can you tell me how are you looping at the TABLE object and printing, do you have any conditions?

How many pages / windows you have?

My guess you have a window on the top of main window and in the second page you have just the main window.

Don't change the size of the main window.

If you don't have a second page, COPY the first page into second one, remove the top window and extend the main window to occupy the entire space on the second page.

Ravi

Hi Ravi,

I have 5 pages in my output and i want to take printout.

I have copied all windows in second page and everything is looking fine in print prieview.

And nothing is printing into second page because data is sufficeint in first page...

I did not understand why the data is coming into previous pages while printing...

thanks
