I'm struggling with what should seem to be a simple issue, but I'm stumped. I have a text field which has content of varied length (anything from 3 lines to a couple of pages). The problem is that I can set the field in sliding/printing to shrink, but I can't get it to expand - so if it is more than the maximum space I've allowed the text gets cut off in preview mode.

Any ideas? Am I missing something stupid?

You're not missing anything except that FileMaker does not expand fields when printing, only shrink them. You need to "oversize" your text field.
