Wouldn't it be nice to finally get rid of the dot-matrix reporting
thinking (where you had a fixed character width & height) & issue a
simple page-feed at the right moment - not forgetting page & section
headers/footers mind you....

Emne: [development-axapta] Filling Out a Report Page
When printing a report, rather than counting lines to fill out a page,
I've dynamically changed the height of a programmable section to fill
out a page before printing totals located at the bottom of the page. It
works well when you have lines on either side. I've used mm to specify
heights on the report objects. Depending on you printer, the lines are
straighter. Also, you only print one line to fill out the page. Here's
a snippet of code from the report's fetch method...
// print detail lines
...
// when done with detail...
// not enough room for totals on this page
if (element.mm100Left() <
ProgrammableTotalsLine.heightmm100())
{
BlankDetail.height(element.mm100Left()/100,Units::mm);
// size is rest of page
element.execute(2); // print BlankDetail line
element.newPage();
}
// print blank section before totals - size is rest of page
minus the height of the totals
BlankDetail.height((element.mm100Left()-PageFooter.heightmm100()-Program
mableTotalsLine.heightmm100())/100,Units::mm);
element.execute(2);
// print Totals
element.execute(1); // this is the ProgrammableTotalsLine
