problem with DetailBand height/RichText

edited November 2001 in General
Hello,
I have a report qith a simple ppRichText on a DetailBand.
ppRichText is filled on beforegenerate event of DetailBand qith the content
of a StringList. The problem is that, sometimes, RB prints too much space
after the RichText. It results that there is almost 1 cm of blank space
between 2 successive detailbands, instead of a few millimeters.

Did anybody experienced this problem ?

Thanks.

    I don't see this problem with a few demos I'm running here. Can you send an
    example to support@digital-metaphors.com One other thing to check is the
    BottomOffset property of the detail band and the controls in the band, as
    this would cause space to be printed for sure.

    thanks Jim for answering...
    It would be complicated to send a demo because I think problem comes from
    EPSON driver for a ticket printer. What I don't understand is that the
    problem seems to occur randomly.

    I dropped TppRichText component from the report and then put it another one
    and it worked fine... I hope it was not just for a day !

    Make sure you have the latest printer driver available as well. Can you
    test this report using a different printer to verify that the Epson driver
    is at fault?
