Having a problem printing a report using A4, that works fine on a letter format printer. The A4 printer skews the header, as shown in the attachment. This is a custom report with script linked to the print order documents session.

I have made sure the printer I'm printing to is set to A4.

If at all possible, I would rather not write code to count line numbers and then page break. Theoretically, the paper type setting should solve this problem.

Any ideas?

We are having no problems with this. As far as I know it all depends on the paper that you assign to the printer.
A printer can only use one kind of paper, ie A4 or letter. Within the paper/fonts you define the number of lines that can be printed.

What type of OS is the client using and what sort of printer ?. On XP for HP printers there is a paper setting under General, Printing Preferences as well as device settings.

May be worth double checking the print driver just in case there are two settings.

I too have just discovered we have this problem (with a canon on unix). How does Baan manage to print the same report on letter and then on A4?
Thanks

Hello,
is the printer itself set to 64 lines per page ?
