Hi,
Using VFP 9.
I use "@ say" commands to print tif files to a printer.
After a few prints with different tif files, i get the
"picture too big..." error a blank page is ejected.
a sample of the code:
***
SET CONSOLE OFF
SET PRINTER on
SET DEVICE TO PRINTER

@ .1,.1 say 'f1040_0001.tif' bitmap isometric
eject
@ .1,.1 say 'f1040_0002.tif' bitmap isometric

*(and so on...)

SET DEVICE TO screen
SET PRINTER off
SET PRINTER to
SET CONSOLE on
***
It seems if I print the same file over & over, it may be ok,
but if i call other programs with a different file names,
the error comes up. Thanks in advance for all of your guidance.

With using VFP9, you should NOT be using the antiquated @SAY method of outputting data/info.

Create a VFP Report Form on which to put your picture.

Good Luck,
