Hi there,

I want to print on a dot-matrix printer a form which is 8 inches high, fanfold paper.

I set the pagesettings hight to 48 Characters (6 lpi), but it seems to me as if Fast-report ignores this value in printing (in the design- and preview-output the sheet is shown with 48 chars hight). with pagebreak enabled it prints and the printer start formfeed and continue printing after 12 inches (=normal paper). With pagebreak disabled it prints the next page not correct (there is an offset of about 2 lines).

What do I have to tell Fast-Report to send the pagesettings correct to the printer?

regards
Sascha

    is this size available in the printer if not you may have to create a custom size
    for the printer
    see the page properties for the printer in the system settings.

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
