Thats not something I've run into, I don't use the utility currently. And I don't know as there is a resident postscript expert lounging about here on this list. What little I know would indicate that a whole new page would have to be generated, not exactly a trivial task to a non-postscript guru. However, take a look at the one used for dat tapes, it prints in a microscopic font, about 0.025" high. Perhaps borrowing some of the font size control code from there, and transplanting it into the 8.5x11.ps file, could be used to make your whole report fit on one page. Depending on the printer of course but most of the ink squirters can print in excrutiatingly tiny fonts. Either of mine could put that 8.5x11 sheets data on a label that will actually fit on one face of a dat casette holder. You might need a magnifying glass to read it if your trifocals don't fit exactly right though so I'd approach the shrinkage incrementally as you probably don't need to go to quite that extreme to make it fit. With a small enough font, you could also use the two column approach from that dat.ps file to advantage also. :) Post it when and if you have it tweaked to suit, there are probably others here who could benefit. With my current number (49 & growing) of DLE's, I know I'd run over a single page for sure at std font sizes. -- Cheers, Gene AMD [EMAIL PROTECTED] 320M [EMAIL PROTECTED] 512M 99.27% setiathome rank, not too shabby for a WV hillbilly Yahoo.com attornies please note, additions to this message by Gene Heskett are: Copyright 2003 by Maurice Eugene Heskett, all rights reserved.
