Report randomily loses framing

edited July 2007 in General
Our invoice report, which is run quite considerably, occasionally will
lose all the framing around the edges for 5 to 10 reports then go back to
normal.

We're running version 10.04 of Report Builder but this was happening in
version 9.03 as well.

Also, it hasn't been tied to 1 printer. Kyocera FS9000, a Minolta 3300
and a HP6L and they ALL do it (actually the Minolta spits the dummy).

When the report is previewed it looks correct but still fails to print
correctly.

If you have any suggestions it would be great

Regards,
Brenton.

    Hi Brenton,

    How are you framing the report? If this is a frame around each entire page
    of the report, I would suggest creating a shape inside the PageStyle band to
    keep things simple. The PageStyle can be accessed from the Report option of
    the main menu.

    Hi Nico,

    Thanks for the reply. We are using Page styles for the outside
    border. We also have Rounded rectangle in the heading which don't show up.

    Hi Brenton,

    This is not a known issue with ReportBuilder. Are you certain you margins
    for this report are set within the printers' printable area? Do you only
    loose the frame shape(s) or are you loosing other shapes in the report as
    well? If you for instance set the frame to a smaller size are you able to
    see the shape again?
