Field frame showing in a specific printer

rbuser

In a customer's printer the frame around a field/variable we see in the
designer is displayed in the printout as well.Same report works ok in my
setup.
Any ideas?

Thanks

Hi Yannis,

This is not a known issue. Which version of ReportBuilder/Delphi are you
using? Does this frame show up in the Previewer on screen. Be sure you are
not setting the Border property of the text oject. Also, be sure ther is
not a shape perhaps behind the text object.

Hi Nico,

I am using RB 6.03 in D5 (legacy application).
The printer is Epson epl-n 2750.
What we observed is that when the Transparent = true the problem goes away!

Hi Yannis,

Thanks for the info. You may consider upgrading to a later version of
ReportBuilder and seeing if the problem still exists.

Sorry,
It is not easy to upgrade.
Setting the transparent property to true the problem is solved, so we are
ok.
However can you think of some possible reason that this happens?
Thanks

Hi Yannis,

I am unsure the reason however my guess would be something to do with the
printer driver. You may try upgrading your printer driver or try printing
to a different printer and see if that changes things.
