>>This is something you must live with, since RB 90 uses GDI+. Normally you must make some of the fields wider and/or use smaller fonts. Unless you have many reports, the fix shouldn't take that long. I suggest that you do the conversion, and stick to RB 90 in the future.

And you cannot copy strings out of the PDF either. I see less and less paper actually printing and more and more PDFs being created as time goes on.

Agree 1000x over. RB90 is not worth the trade-offs. RB80 is so much faster. If you need RB90 for a special report, turn it on for just that report then go back to RB80.
