Bob,
1) The client is dealing in acceptance letters, so wide isn't an issue. For columnar reports, they use Informer. 2) Paging can be controlled. It took me a long time to find the code, but you can set print page breaks in an HTML document. I've only tested it with FireFox on a PC, but it is supposed to work in all browsers. E-mail me off line and I'll dig out the logic and send it to you. Or you could just chase me down at Spectrum. 3) Since we only print internally, I do have font control because I can specify which fonts must be installed on a PC or Mac, guaranteeing a match for the fact I ask for.

1) If the report is in a wide format, such as classic 132-column reports,
the browser will simply drop the right side (although IE7 did add some shrink-to-fit logic).

2) You have no control over pagination, meaning you can not put column headers at the top of page 2, for instance, because you don't know where the top of page 2 is.

3) You have not explicit control over font size. Do you use CSS for this?
