TExtraDevices Print to Tif not printing whole document...

edited July 2001 in General
I have a stretchable RTF component on an RB report and for some reason when
it runs longer than one page, it skips several lines of the RTF at the end
of each page before beginning the next, when printing to TIF using
DeviceType='GraphicFile'.

Anyone experience this? I am loading from file/stream into the RichText
component on the report before printing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Mark

    This only happens when printing to TIF? The RB rich text relies on Delphi's
    TRichEdit. Make sure you are using the latest printer driver. You could
    also try contacting James Waler at www.waler.com (the author of
    TExtradevices) if it is only related to printing richtext to a TIF.

    Its directly related to printing to TIF, since I haven't received word from
    Waler yet I was told this forum might be a good place to ask the question.
    It looks like he's not allocating enough of an area (TRect) to print the
    rich text out for a page, thus it thinks it has printed text that it
    actually hasn't and can skip anywhere from 5 lines to 20 lines between pages
    depending upon what the richtext is.
