Has anyone ever encountered this phenomenon, & if so did you resolve it. For some strange reason the form shows in normal view perfectly, prints perfectly, but shows a blank page on print preview.... James Goodman

I would look at the margins of your report. Try making them smaller like 0.25" all the way around. I also suspect that you are previewing the report with the Default printer that has a larger margins and then you are printing the report to other than default and that printer has smaller margins.

LaserjetPrinters tend to have smaller margins than InkJets.

This is the strange thing, I am previewing the form (it is a form i am printing) on the printer which it prints out perfectly on. Therefore something really strange must be going on.... James Goodman
