Hi Grig,
I am unclear on the concept of printer drivers and how to fix this problem.
Does (or can) the same font require different widths for different printers?
Could I fix this problem by having all the machines select the same primary printer and then make sure the report works for that printer?
Or alternately, I have to find out which printer (and its corresponding printer driver) requires the greatest width for a given field and then design reports to be compatible with that printer.
If so, this is a new concept for me. I thought documents were supposed to come out looking the same regardless of the physical printer that produced the document.
Also, if so, the nasty implication is that when you design a report, you have to know which printers will be used to create the report and make sure that the report accommodates those printers.
Thanks, Chaim
