Hi all,
I am going to suggest that it might be related to the PDF printer option in Rbase and guessing the driver has to be re-initialized after each print operation. Has anyone tried the same experiment using print preview options for a report, in other words, rather than printing to a printer, select a PDF printer (You might have to set up the print preview option temporarily). It works for me using CUTE PDF writer as a print option, I can print pages 1 and 2, and immediately print pages 3 and 4. You can also do this from the Report Designer Preview Print option for a report and print to PDF (You can use the PDF writer included in Windows 10 if you don’t have a third party PDF writer). If this works for you, then it would seem to point to the PDF writer in Rbase. I tried this on both Win 7 and Win 10 and Rbase 10 and 10.5 with no problems using an external PDF writer.

I have a report up to my screen. I select to print pages 1-2, print to a PDF file, it opens just fine. I close the PDF Without exiting the report screen, I select to print pages 3-4, print to a PDF file, type in a different file name. It doesn't produce anything, I don't even see it counting up the pages printing. I am able to get out of the report screen. I do not have to exit RBase completely, but if I bring up the report screen again I am able to print one more PDF as before. So it seems like an issue even in current version Karen -----Original Message----- From: 'Jim Belisle' via RBASE-L <[email protected]> To: [email protected] <[email protected]> Sent: Mon, May 11, 2020 3:11 pm Subject: RE: [RBASE-L] - problem printing to PDFs Patti, Now that you mention it, I believe I have the same problem. I thought I was doing something wrong when I first notices this last month. But the minute I saw your post, I checked it out and sure enough, if I print only one page of a pdf report, I cannot print the other two pages of the same report. Thanks for the post.

One guy gets, pages 1-2, other gets 3-4 and so on. So I have been able to save them as separate PDFs until this week. Now, I am fine printing an entire report to one PDF. And I am able to print one time to a PDF where I am selecting certain pages. But after that, I can't save any more, not entire reports nor page ranges - it just hangs. All I can do is get out of Rbase, go back in and reprocess the report. Then I can save a few more pages as a pdf, then get out of Rbase and reprocess. I did a Windows update last week, but I couldn't tell you what exactly was updated. Our system admin tells me he can't see any windows or adobe problems that people are reporting about this. So maybe it is an Rbase thing? We purchased the new version of Rbase but were unable to load it on all the machines before Covid shutdown. Currently have version 10.0.3.1114.
