Doug: when I was looking through my notes originally, I found this example: PROPERTYRBASE_FORM'CAPTURE_FROM_SCREEN|23, 24, 934, 800' 'c:\Screen_AreaCapture.bmp'
I was thinking that perhaps I could capture the form size, save to a jpg, create an "empty" report template that would print the jpg image. I haven't tried it yet, but I will (and report the results to the list) if the easy print-screen cannot work Karen -----Original Message----- From: Doug Hamilton <[email protected]> To: rbase-l <[email protected]> Sent: Sat, Apr 20, 2019 9:11 am Subject: Re: [RBASE-L] - Rbase_form Print options? Karen - would the CAPTURE and PASTE properties work? You might have to create an image control for pasting and send it to the printer PROPERTY RBASE_FORM CAPTURE_FROM_WINDOW 'CLIPBOARD' PROPERTY <Component ID> PASTEFROMCLIPBOARD 'TRUE' PROPERTY RBASE_FORM CAPTURE_FROM_WINDOW 'CLIPBOARD' Captures an image of the current window and places the content in the clipboard. The entire window, or a specified area can be captured. Examples: -- to capture full form to a BMP file PROPERTY RBASE_FORM CAPTURE_FROM_WINDOW CLIPBOARD -- to capture part of the form to a JPG file PROPERTY RBASE_FORM 'CAPTURE_FROM_WINDOW|12,12,134,300' CLIPBOARD PROPERTY <Component ID> PASTEFROMCLIPBOARD 'TRUE' Pastes data from clipboard to the focused field. This parameter is supported for DB/Var Edit/Memo/Image controls. PROPERTY ComponentID PasteFromClipboard TRUE You can also paste data to the focused field using: PROPERTY RBASE_FORM PasteFromClipboard TRUE I haven't tried any of this, just found the properties that might steer you in a direction.

These are the only options I know that I can use, but only a portion of the form will print. Any other options I don't know about to shrink the picture onto one printer page, or another way to do it?
