Vincent - I tried your suggestion - and I did take out that setting. And, sure enough - the PDF version still came out wrong. But, this time - when I then - RIGHT After trying the PDF - I said Print Preview - it came out wrong again. But, this time - it was due to (what I believe) that is saw my last printer selection - and was still trying to do a Preview based upon PDF as the printer setting.
So - next - I printed straight to the printer - and the problem did NOT occur. And then - I tried the Preview again - and THIS time it DID print preview correctly. As such - its definitely tied purely to the PDF - since when I compared a straight print - and the printed PDF - the whole form is scaled differently! So - it the end - it looks like I MUST make a different version of the Form - JUST to be printed as PDF. -K- -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Kurt Wendt Sent: Tuesday, September 28, 2010 5:29 PM Hey Vincent - thanks for your input. I know that the Printer Env is constantly getting saved with the report form - but, it usually causes another type of problem (like printing to the Wrong printer). And, when I encounter this problem - I got into VFP9 to remove that setting (even though I edit & work with the forms all in VFP7 - which is what we use for most all of our older client systems). But, for the Heck of it - I will try to remove that setting and see if it has ANY impact at all! -K- -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Vincent Teachout Sent: Tuesday, September 28, 2010 5:10 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: Report Output via PDF Does NOT Match Kurt Wendt wrote: > So - when I tried it - I confirmed what They had found - that it fails > to work right ONLY when they output the report form to a PDF file.

Have you checked the printer environment in the report? Maybe printer settings were stored there? _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/289ea162f5642645b5cf64d624c66a14071a1...@us-ny-mail-002.waitex.net ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
