Help Needed - Custom Printing Issue

Why not create an ODBC connection and pull into Excel or Word and print from there? You could also potentially use BIRT.

Thanks,

Subject: [Vantage] Help Needed - Custom Printing Issue



Hi Everyone,

Crystal report viewer 2008 SP3 has a bug when printing custom form whose height
is less than 4.3 inches. The form data orientation is changes that is from
Portrait to Landscape of vise versa. Now here is my challenge, I need to print
forms size 8.5 x 3.8 and have designed a crystal report but now i cannot print
because of the bug since I am using pre-printed forms and have ordered a ton
only to encounter this issue. Can someone tell me what is the best way to
print these forms without using crystal report viewer? Can i write some ABL
code to print this form, should I use external program .....I am totally lost on
this one and look forward to your guidance.

Paul
