Printing: either the right side or the bottom was clipped
I printed out the receipt for an on-line order. The right side was clipped, so I reprinted it in Landscape. Now the last few lines are clipped. Well, I could take the last few lines from the portrait copy and combine it with the Landscape copy, but these three lines in the Portrait copy are right-wiped. Other than pasting the entire message into Word, is there a solution in TheBat? Thanks. -- Leonard S.

Hello Peter, This is what you said on Sun, 30 Nov 2008 19:35:48 +0100 your time: Shouldn't Ritlabs produce manuals for their software? At first I was going to say I 100% agree, but then I thought about it some more and decided that I didn't 100% agree after all. I find it odd that users need to produce manuals for a commercial software product. Yes, me too! However, the difference is that the manual that users are proposing to produce here is a printable manual, not an electronic manual for viewing/reading on a monitor. Freeware/open source, yes; payware, no. Indeed, TB! isn't OS software, as you say, but it does come with a manual. Okay, TB!'s manual hasn't always been the best, and over the many years I have been using TB! the manual has received much criticism from users, but that's something else entirely...another topic. It seems to me that the manual being discussed here is a 'printable manual', which is something entirely different to an electronic manual supplied with the software...as TB! has one of those. User's getting together to produce a 'free' (I would hope) 'print ready' manual for TB! is a project that doesn't necessarily have anything to do with the authors of TB! Many software vendors charge extra for printed versions of their manuals, granted, but not all vendors actually provide printed or printable versions of their manuals. This usually opens up the doors for third parties to make a bit of money, and as we all know the manual writing business is rather lucrative. So if TB! users want to get it together and produce a completely _free_ comprehensive, exhaustive, print ready manual for other TB! users then I fully support the project. Well, as long as it is organised properly, and the finished product can be thoroughly checked for errors and validated by other 'expert users'. -- Simon (Privateofcourse) #19341.

Let's write an English manual for The Bat! that is suitable for printing
Ok, I joked, but also, I am willing to participate in a project where we put together an English PDF manual. But I cannot do it alone. This is what I suggest: - first we simply import the CHM into HelpManual (I tried it, works, some formatting does not come over). Advantage of HM is that we can create PDF very easily, etc. Ok, so at this point we have a PDF v0. - some people go over it and decide which parts to change, what extra parts to write - those people decide who corrects/writes those parts - everybody does his job by the deadline the people agree - the editor/dictator :) goes over the parts and make the final corrections. If the issue is a serious one, he discusses it with the author. Final word is always the editor's. - we make a PDF then that is released. This is when people who are not actively included in the project can make suggestions, that could be included in PDF manual v2. So, who are willing to put some time into it? I estimate like ca. 40 hrs/person or little more. Project would take until the end of January, so it can be spread over two months, no reason to hurry during December. I am willing to do the HM editing, suggesting a structure, make the PDF v0. I can supply the editor with HM. I wont be editor. However, I strongly suggest to have ONE editor.

Like Roger, I have not explored all the fine features of TB, but like Roger, I could help with the text editing, having written tech manuals years ago (it was not my primary job, but I did it as an engineer helping develop such manuals for machine operators). There should be a good chief editor (not I!), and dividing up of tasks, reasonable deadlines, etc. Thank you, Vili, for your hard work on the Hungarian manual and for making this suggestion.

They don't wrap on the screen (or when I printed it, though it makes sense I suppose that if it didn't wrap on screen, it wouldn't wrap on paper). Well, it depends what you mean by wrap. I have my emails set to hard wrap at 76 characters, so I have line breaks that force that. However, your emails don't have hard wraps, they wrap at the edge of the screen. I presume this is because you use the windows editor, which doesn't automatically insert line breaks when it wraps a line. However, not wrapping at all could mean that the line just goes on off the edge of the page and you get a horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of the screen. You have to use that horizontal scroll bar to see the end of the line. Yes, you are correct - I use the Windows editor. I did have a horizontal scroll bar with the Logitech e-mail. Oddly enough, most of the e-mail was wrapped fine - it was just one particular part of the e-mail that wasn't wrapping.

Re: Help with Printing
Hi Peter, Hello Chris, on Sun, 26 Feb 2006 12:55:15 +1100 (2006-02-26 02:55:15 in .nl) in the message with reference mid:[EMAIL PROTECTED] you [] wrote (at least in part): C The margins are set in Print Setup to 3cm (both left and right), Ok. C and 25cm (top and bottom-I'm using A4 paper). I hope not when using A4, as it is 29,something cm in height (note here the ',' is used as a decimal separator). Yeah, 210x297 or something like that - but it was fitting on the page lengthwise ok, just not widthwise. Actually, it was The Bat! itself that set the margins - and the margin it set for width was some insane number like 20cm. I was the one that changed it to 3... C I've tried adding %WRAPPED to the print template in Print Setup (on C the very first line). Nothing I can do will make this message print C correctly. Help! There have been problems in beta's preceding this release. Apparently, the issue hasn't been completely resolved. I'm using v3.71 - so if %WRAPPED was working properly, that would have fixed my problem?

I have my emails set to hard wrap at 76 characters, so I have line breaks that force that. However, your emails don't have hard wraps, they wrap at the edge of the screen. I presume this is because you use the windows editor, which doesn't automatically insert line breaks when it wraps a line. However, not wrapping at all could mean that the line just goes on off the edge of the page and you get a horizontal scroll bar at the bottom of the screen.

Why, so they can print out their wife's mail. What else?
Of course there are many reason. For instance, to be read by those not
using computers. Then, some letters are written just twice in lifetime
(now and nevermore), and they often finish framed on the wall. Some of
them are printed in many copies and are distributed to friends,
neighbors, or even glued on poles, electric substations, walls in
downtown, restaurants, elevators, banks, cars, busses, birthing centers
(as a warning) and so on.
Encrypted ones are fine for using in a conceptual art as sti{n|c}ky
notes on refrigerators, WC doors, or as templates for tattoos. Etc.
Indeed there are many reasons why someone would print a message or two,
now and then, even being not trained by a thin voice of a big lady
breathing behind his neck.

Printing problem with TheBAT! 2.12
Hi all, Having scanned thru the list messages in the archive, I couldn't find a solution to the following, so I hope someone here can help. I've just moved a car hire firm over to using TB from OE, and that has gone fine, however they receive on a regular basis emails from another firm giving car hire details, in the following format: Name : x y Category : vvwx Etc,etc for 2 pages worth of fields. These emails display in TB in the correct format - the problem comes with printing. If you print the email from the main screen, or open the email and print it from there, the print format looks like this: Name :x y Category : vvwx However, if you pretend to reply to the email, and print it from that screen, then the email prints exactly as displayed on screen - and most importantly, this is how it is meant to be printed. (Note that, with the above, if you have more than one word after the colon on a line, it tends to print the first word on the same line and then the rest on a second line, whereas if there is only one word as the post-colon word, it tends to get put on the next line). Having played with the various settings available to me, I've found no way to prevent this behaviour - your thoughts would be appreciated! (Oh, and it's printer independant - it happens on my Brother HL5150D, and their HP multi-function thing).

Re[2]: Printing problem with TheBAT! 2.12
Hello Thomas, Thanks for the reply. TF Just a guess: Have you checked the margins at Message / Print Setup / TF General? It could be that the margins are set so that a new line is TF induced too early. Tried changing the margins, and which editor was used to display the message. Appears to make no difference. Changing font size also makes no difference. TF This seems to contradict my theory but suggests another question: Are TF the incoming messages in plain text? If not, is the plain-text editor TF used for replying? As above - I *think* I've tried all possible editor combinations. Further tests - if I forward the email then the fault remains, but if I send it to another email client (Pegasus or OE) then it prints correctly. Copy/paste to another text editor also prints correctly. It does appear to be something with TheBat at this stage of the tests. I can forward part of the email to the list if that would help (data protection means I can't forward the whole thing).

I have received the plain-text message and printed it out. To my surprise, I confirm: 1.)
