I have a simple dbase that will print a basic A4 invoice sheet when run on a mac. It includes a header, body and footer. When it is transfered to a PC it would appear that nothing prints except anything in the footer. On a list view it will only print the last record. This is driving me crazy. Other programs print fine to the printer. (Which is a Lexmark X1180).

Has anybody come across this, or more importantly have a fix for it.

The database is the simplest invoice with nothing clever about it. I just can't think of anything else.

Thanks

Aaron,

I used to have trouble with cross platform printing in FMP 5.5. To solve the problem I wrote print scripts for each of the required combinations of paper size, orientation, records to be printed. In the scripts I added If/Else steps for Mac and PC print setups and printing.

If I remember correctly, it was a coule years ago, to use the same Print Setup [ ] options for both platforms the order in which the setup was stored was important. I think it was the PC first?
