Preview to print problem
Hello everyone.
I have a very simple report that I use one memo component in the title band. I load the memo with a text file. The text file has different columns positioned at different locations on the page. Easy enough.
The problem is when I preview the report it looks great, but when I print it the text becomes misaligned. I understand my font spacing will be an issue, so I am using Terminal 8. What I don't understand is why isn't the preview a mirror of the actual print. Anyone have any suggestions.
Example
Preview Looks Like:
Name
Company Terms: 0 Service Code: 1
123 Main Sales Type: 1 Service Area: 2
City, St. Rate: 1.2 Service Days: 5
Printing Looks Like:

123 Main Sales Type: 1 Service Area: 2

try turning off wsiwig prop of memo.
or use more than 1 memo with variables and before running report parse your textfile and pass the values into a variable.
or store your file as an rtf file and use an rtf memo.
