Hello,

I am trying to create a report where the page length is adapted to the size of the content.

The report is being inserted into a word document and i dont want large blank spaces.

Hope thats clear

thanks

Hi

it seems to me that it would be much easier to prepare your report as text (or rtf) and merge it in your word document (a simple search and replace of a tag would do the work)

If you really want to print, then I think you'll need to use low level functions (iPrint, iLine, etc)...

Quite a long time ago, I wrote code allowing me to simulate the printing that way and calculate the height/length of a whole report before printing for real, so I know what you are trying to do is possible... Not the easiest way in my opinion, though

Best regards

Hi Fabrice

I did just that created an .rtf file instead of a .pdf then substituted:

Range>>InlineShapes>>AddOLEObject

for

Range>>InsertFile()

works a treat many thanks
