Besides what Sergey said about using a temp file to avoid any page number discrepancies .. you should also get the printer before doing this. Otherwise, the temp file you create will assume the default printer .. and then for the real report, the user could pick a different print. If the two different printers have different non-printable margins you could get a discrepancy in the page counts.
