Weird LazReport printing error
lazarus / 16-Databases

Hi

I have no idea how to fix this... has anybody else had similar
problems? When I preview the report, everything looks fine. However,
as soon as I print it (doesn't matter to what printer), it reverses
everything! I.e. the Report Title appears at the Bottom of the page
instead of at the top, followed by the Page header above it, then the
Column Header above that and finally the data written with the last
row at the top and the first row just above the Column header. Also,
the columns appear in reverse order, with the leftmost column on the
right and the last column on the left. Actually, it seems as if the
text is just upside-down... the effect is the same.

In the preview, it looks as it should. Any idea how to fix this? If it
will help, I can add some screenshots and a copy of a final PDF,
showing the difference.

Thanks
Chavoux

Does this happends with all printers ?

Yes, it happens with all printers... Running Lazarus 0.9.20, fpc 2.0.4
on Debian Sarge. Printing works fine from other applications.

If you change font, then it happens... but if you do not change
default font, then it's ok, yes?

I have same problem...

Creating a bugreport would be the best.

Please use Lazarus bug tracking system, choose Lazarus packages
project.

Any info that helps to more acurately reproduce the problem would be
welcome specially if you could provide a compilable project, would be
great. Just if files are too big, provide links or send files to me at
jesusrmx a yahoo.com.mx

Try to edit the lpr file and search values below zero. Correct them
and try again.
Best regards.
