Report starts 2/3 down page

I've tested my report on three different PC's. 2 with WinXP Pro, 1 with Win2K Server. On the Win2K machine, each page of the report starts 2/3 down the page, with the first 2/3 being blank space. On the other 2 machines, the reports look normal, with the page title printing at the top of each page. I have another application using the FR VCL that works fine on this same Win2K server machine. Does anyone know why my new app is generating reports like this??? Thanks in advance.

    Both XP machines have Delphi and FR VCL installed on them. The Win2K machine has neither, if that helps.

    Is there any printer selected as report default by checking the "select when report loaded" checkbox? If it is the case then try unselect it.

    Where should I be looking for the option? I don't see it in the FR Preview screen, and it doesn't seem to be a design time property for the component...???

    Thanks!

    Okay...I found what you were talking about. The checkbox was checked, I unchecked it, but it didn't solve the problem.

    Looks like I found the culprit...the customer had a barcode/receipt printer set as their default Windows printer. I changed the default printer to their normal sized HP printer, and the report looks fine.

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.
