Landscape Printing Problem

edited April 2002 in General
I'm trying to print various size postcards in landscape mode. My
problem is that the cards prints but the right 1/2 inch does not
print. I'm using a Wptools RTF control to generate the text and then
printing with RB. This problem only occurs on Inkjet printers. I've
tried adjusting the margins and page size in the rtf control and
Report Builder with no luck. I'm using Delphi 6 with RB 6.03. Any
help appreciated.

    WPTools ReportBuilder Support Units are available from www.wptools.de. See
    the RBuilder/Infopower demo for an example of replacing the default RichText
    engine. You'll have to make the same register calls as shown in the
    Infopower demo.

    I must not have been clear about my problem. I have all the WPTools
    support unit installed properly. They work fine except for the
    landscape problem I mentioned. I can get the report to print on some
    Inkjets by increasing the page width to a size larger then the paper.
    i.e paper size 4 x 6 becomes 4 x 6.5 with no margins set. This does
    not seem right! The problem seems to be with custom paper sizes. The
    preview looks perfect in all cases but I loose the right 1/2 inch of
    data. Thanks.
