Sliding prints differently from Preview Mode

[vasilek]

Hello. I am looking for some advise with sliding feature. Here is my case.

I am utilizing sliding feature of FileMaker to print signature right under the text of letter.

On the layout I have 3 fields:

1. Body (text)

2. Signature (container)

3. Sub Signature (text)

Printing layout is 3 pages, so Body field is spanned over 3 pages, and the other 2 are just below it at the very bottom of page 3.

When I look at the screen in Preview Mode, sliding works perfectly, but when printed, it leaves an extra space between Signature fields and Body field (looks like they didn't slide all the way to be just right under Body field).

Thanks in advance for help on this.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I can't get it to work either.

Perhaps a printing expert will chime in here. I'm not even having any luck creating a new layout and putting the two text fields on it, and setting them to slide. Is this a new file, a copy of the other one, or what?

This is a striped down version of an actual file for my solution.

Thanks for trying. Hope printing expert will find this thread.

It seems to work in OS X.

Yes, it is working in OS X. Interesting...

Try changing the font to Arial. I changed the font on your sample file and it seems to bring up the singature and title up under the body of the letter.
