==== Printing from OIPI Preview (OpenInsight 32-Bit) ====

We have found (in OI 4.1.2) that printing a complex report from the Preview window sometimes does not print as shown, but it does print correctly if generated straight to the printer without the preview window.  The report is complex in that it includes images, which OIPI scales, and contains numerous font changes between labels and data.  Where the report breaks down, it is usually that images or font changes are no longer processed - ie, images don't appear and the font remains at the last font used for all text.  Has anyone come across this?



When printing from the Preview window, does it just send the resolved image of the report to the printer, or does it somehow run the BMP and FONT commands again?



I suspect that it has something to do with resources within the Preview window.  If the report is run without images or the report does not have to scale the images, then printing from the preview window works fine.  Will also have to check this in OI 7.

<QUOTE>Funny you mention this as I had just this problem yesterday.

I had page 1 all OK, then page 2 all printing in the same font, then page 3-5 was processed correctly.



In my instance I printed pages 1-5 of a 30 page report.

At first I thought it must be a program bug, but I could not figure out what it would be, so put it in the too hard basket.



I have no images in this report, but resources sounds like a good place to start.  I am using XP witn OI 4.1.3.
