When printing pages of records which are viewed as lists, each of which is about two lines long, FMP doesn't seem to be checking where the bottom of the page is, and consequently prints records which fall into the bottom page margin, and thus get chopped off. If it makes a difference, I'm using the NEC SilentWriter 95. In fact, it makes no difference. Unfortunately, this is a problem inherent with the way that FileMaker prints. It is the user's responsibility to keep the layouts set in such a way that no fields can overlap the page break boundary. One suggestion would be to set a footer to a small amount and tweak it until you get what you want. I know, sounds, silly, but if you don't like it and you're a registered customer, please do send in a suggestion. It's the only way that Technical Support and Customer Relations have of creating leverage to fix problems that we see that haven't been fixed yet. If you want, send it in to my attention, from the address in your manual. -- -Nick "Ever wonder why so many people think Windows is great?"
