Thanks for your suggetions kyley. We end up having to render
everything to an image and rotate it 180 degrees.
To maintain fine print quality we use Tmetafilecanvas instead of
Tcanvas, which makes rotating much harder. But we got there at the end.
Cheers

The printing options are normally just an indication to the software

system.
you may need to render your report to a graphic, then rotate and print
the graphic.
