I have Windows XP SP3, VFP 9 SP1.
The printer is dot matrix. The paper is endless pre-printed with some form
format A5 with width 210mm and with perforation at each 148mm.
How can create Report for this paper? In Page Setup there is also offered A5
format but I do not know how to exchange width with height. To set
Orientation from Portrait to Landscape is not solution because the format
remains the same just printing is upright.
In my "Print Server Properties" I found 187 forms and among them also
exactly the form I want. His name is "A5 Rotated". So I already have
requested form and I suppose that it will be at the customer's PC too.
I had defined my default printer to Epson FX-80 ( yes, very old printer )
and in my VFP "Page Setup" was offered just few ( 6 ) of them : A4, A5,
B5(JIS), Fontfold 8,5 x 12 in, Legal, Letter. Then I changed default printer
to Fax and "magicaly" there appeared all forms in VFP's "Page Setup" and I
could choose my desired form.
In my PC work fine although my Epson haven't declared "A5 Rotated" form.
My friend has HP printer and he get wrong report! I have Page footer at
the end of rotated A5 form ( middle of A4 form ) but friend got
Page footer at the end of A4 form ( to much space between Group footer
and Page footer ) ! ! !
This is Expr field from this FRX when "Save printer environment" is on :
DRIVER=winspool
DEVICE=Fax
OUTPUT=SHRFAX:
ORIENTATION=0
PAPERSIZE=78
DEFAULTSOURCE=15
PRINTQUALITY=120
YRESOLUTION=144
and with "Save printer environment" is off :
ORIENTATION=0
PAPERSIZE=78
COLOR=2
I tried to save with and without "Save printer environment" but with no
result. He constantly got to much space between Group footer and Page
footer. Any suggestions?
I have a question : how could I print "A5 Rotated" form in whichever printer?
I look everywhere but I don't see how can I do this.
TIA
