Print bugs

Post by remzik »

Hello

I discover two bugs while printing straight from ReportViewer without saving into other document's formats.

1. For example for printing report with only 4 Text components ReportViewer sents to printer 132 Mb (!!!) of data (pic.jpg in attached files). And imagine if it is not a local printer but network. How long will be a delay?

2. I created a report with A5 size and landscape orientation (Report.mrt in attached files). I need to print this report on a top half of A4 page (as in Report.xps in attached files). But ReportViewer rotates A4 page from portrait to landscape and scales the report to fit the A4 page, although I set no scale and portrait orientation in printer settings.

Hello,

1. The printing data size is large, because Flash Player can print only using the image. This is a limitation of Flash Player and on the current moment we cannot solve the problem.

2. At this moment there is an automatic identification of orientation. We've added a special option to disable this feature, please set it to false:

StiOptions.print.autoPageOrientation = false;

The update will be avaible in today's prerelease build.

Thank you.

Hello,

StiOptions.print.autoPageOrientation = false doesn't solve the second problem. Stimulsoft still stretch A5 page to A4 page. Plese add scale option.

Hello,

Unfortunately, it is a problem to implement this option, because different printers return different sizes of printing canvas for the same types of paper. If to implement the size factor option, it will also be different for different printers.

Thank you.

Hello,

Please specify what paper settings are set in the system print dialog?

Thank you.
