I've been using a Pan database file in 4.0.2 under Classic in 10.4.10
that was created at least as long ago as June 2000 with whatever Pan
version was current at the time.
I just opened it in Pan 5.5 under 10.4.10 and there are some printing
issues. I used the Zap Page Setup wizard to zap all the forms but it
did not help.
The forms with the printing problem have a Data Tile that is 8.5" x
11" and no other Tiles. On the form there are various TESOs and some
click text and some text boxes on the data tile. Some of the TESOs
are set to be expandable. The click text and text boxes are near the
top of the form. Some are above the Data Tile where there are also
some buttons, because they are not intended to print. There are Fixed
and Expandable TESOs the rest of the way down on the Data Tile.
Nothing is below the Data Tile.
The way it has been working in 4.0.2 is if a TESO has more text than
can fit within the size of the TESO the TESO expands downward during
printing. Now, the TESOs do not change size at all. I have tried
setting a TESO to Fixed Size, doing a save, changing it back to
Expandable, doing another save.
Also, the old reliable Print This Record tool bar button now prints
all records.
Oh, and when I say "print" I mean I click the Preview button in the
Print... window rather than printing out on paper.
How can I resolve these printing issues?
Thanks.
