>>You can change the paper size from your FRX, that way your label will appear according to the page size.
>>Check in VFP9 HELP for the accepted configurations in the EXPR field of the FRX, yopu can set all of them manually

>>Another easy option is to capture the whole image, and use GDI+ to crop the portion that you need.

>Thanks for the help and suggestions - where do I find GDI+
Just to add, you mentioned that the report contains barcodes, for this you can use FoxBarcode class that is fully compatible with FoxyPreviewer.
