Mark,

I have down loaded the latest driver for my HP printer and unfortunately it did not help. I then tried to print other types of reports to see if there was a problem. They all printed completely. The problem appears to be isolated to custom reports which use the multi time period structure.

Unfortunately the sample files which you suggested that I try to print do not contain enough investments to fill the more than one page which is requried for the problem to occur. It occurs only on full pages.

If you have some other suggestions I am willing to try them.

Bill

: Hi Bill,

: The samples are located in the "Samples" sub-directory underneath wherever you
: have Fund Manager installed. Since you don't see the problem on another
: printer this would lead me to believe it is due to a printer driver problem
: with your HP printer. You might check on HP's web site to see if you can
: download an updated driver for your printer?

: Thanks,
: Mark

: : Mark,

: : The report I am trying to print was developed as a custom report with investment end valuations as the columns for each period. I have also found this occurs in portrait mode as well as landscape. I did try it on another computer, Panasonic, and did not have the same problem as on the HP.
: : Where are the sample protfolio's located in FM?

: : Bill

: : : : : : Mark,

: : : : This report was not possible on FM5 because it is one of the Multi period reports. I cannot fax the report to you because of the information it contains but I will try to describe it more clearly

: : : : 1. The first column is a list of investments
: : : : 2. There are five numerical columns of end of period values, one column for each of five years
: : : : 3. The first column of investment names always prints completely to the bottom of the prescribed length of the page.
: : : : 4. The numerical columns print properly until they get to the last 1 and 1/2 rows which do not print.
: : : : 5. This does not occur on the final page of the report, only on the full pages prior to the final page.
: : : : 6. I am printing these in landscape mode with a 1" bottom margin on 8 1/2 x 11 paper on an HP printer.

: : : : Thank you,

: : : : Bill Putt

: : : : : : I am using FM 6.0 and trying to print a multipage report in landscape. Although the first column of row identifiers prints fine, the last 1 and 1/2 rows of the numerical columns do not print. This is regardless of how much of a bottom margin I specify. I have specified a 1" bottom margin. This does not happen on the last page, only on the full pages.

: : : : : : Do you have any suggestions ?

: : : : : : Thank you,

: : : : : : Bill Putt

: : : : : Hi Bill,

: : : : : Did you use to print this report in FM5 okay? What type of report is it?
: : : : : Do you mean that all of the rows print, but the last 1 and a half rows don't
: : : : : print? Do you think you could fax me a copy of the printout? It might be
: : : : : easier to understand. If so, our fax is 480-705-9219.

: : : : : Thanks,
: : : : : Mark

: : : Hi Bill,

: : : Thanks, I understand better now. What report type is this? Does it happen
: : : with all report types? Can you reproduce this with one of the sample
: : : portfolios that ships with FM, so that you could fax that to me? Do you
: : : have access to another printer, to try and take the printer/driver out of
: : : the equation?
