Help,

I am using FMP8 to set up a record keeping database of all of the coorespondece that my company has. Many of these "letters" can be more than a page. Entering them into a field is no problem, but when I try to print one, it gets cut off. I have tried making the field larger but this will many times just print a blank page when the text doesn't fill the field.

Is there any way to have a field automatically adjust to the text put into it when printing? Sliding fields do not seem to work correctly for me.

Any help is appreciated. I appologize if this has already been answered but I couldn't find it on the forums.

Make the field extend multiple pages long on the layout. Then select the field (plus any objects below it), and select Format->Set Sliding/Printing... And choose either option to "Slide up", and "Also reduce the size of the enclosing part".

To get a reasonable bottom margin, you can use a Footer part.
