Default Extra Pages Printing on V 11 - 03-26-2007 , 03:42 PM







I'm converting an application from Version 8 to Version 11 and am having a
problem with some reports. Some of them print out an extra page between
each data page. I saved in the new version and it still didn't matter.
I also looked around in the report settings and couldn't find any clues.
The odd part is some are OK.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Here is another observation. When I print out the report interactively it
doesn't print out a blank page between each. It only happens when I print
via a form using ObjectPal.

Thanks again

The cause of the extra pages is probably going to be some kind of clipping
issue... the print-area could be "1 pixel too wide" and that would cause
an overflow page to be printed. Furthermore, the fact that "it seems to
only happen in ObjectPAL" could be a read-herring.

Adjust the report to increase its margins slightly.

Is this to do with the change of default handling from Clip to width to
Print Overflow pages, in P10?

Try setting overflow handling to "printClipToWidth" when printing a report.

The following worked:

Corel changed the print default from "printClipToWidth" to
"printOverflowPages" in Paradox 9. Try this:

var
printMe report
likeThis reportPrintInfo
endVar

likeThis.orient = printPortrait
likeThis.panelOptions = printClipToWidth

if printMe.open("MyReportName.rsl",winStyleHidden) then
printMe.print(likeThis)
printMe.close()
else
msgStop("Sorry!","Could not open report.")
endIf



I got it in pnews.paradox-programming
