This seems very strange because Windows should adjust the output format not VFP 5.0. Was the report orginally created in VFP 3.0 (or earlier)? I converted my VFP 3.0 project to VFP 5.0 (on the same PC and printer) and get the 'reduced top left' printout. The report display in print preview looks normal. Does anyone know what Microsoft says about this? I have a production .EXE that must run on different client printers (I don't know what they have ahead of time). I suspect Microsoft will say "recreate the report, from scratch, in VFP 5.0. Then include it in the project and re-build (re-compile) the application". I would like to see a convert utility or bug/patch fix.
