Printing to a Report Emulation Text File

rbuser

I tried to print a report directly to report emulation text file, but all
the fields in the report are truncated, including the title on the header band. What is the problem? Is there
any setting up I need to do? I am using RB5.0

Please help. Thanks in advance.

There is a demo (#107) in the main reports demo project which prints to the
report emulation text file. For the best results, you should use a fixed
width font such as courier new 8 point as shown in the demo. There have
been a few fixes to the report emulation text file device since 5.0, so you
may want to consider upgrading to RB 7.
