There are several possibilities about formatting in smartform,

- Maybe a size problem of window / template / table etc in somewhere in your smartforms,

For example you created a template in a window

but length of template is bigger than windows or something like this.

- Maybe you have a logo but picture can not fit into graphic component etc.

How can you find :

Every component in a smartforms has "Conditions" tab

this component won't be drawn without the conditions supplied.

Just write 1=2 on this place for most possible components than try smartforms again and again

until you won't get the "format error".

Last component has a format mistake, find and fix it.

I hope it can solve your problem

Check the Window sizes. It shouldn't exceed the page size. Check the table size in a window. That should exceed the window size and many more.
