Centering layout on any printer?

Featured Replies

In FM Pro 8.5, is there a way to programmaticly center a layout on the way to the printer? My layout items are centered (single page layouts) but when they come out of various printers, they are not always centered.

Some printer drivers have the ability to center to page, but those that do not are causing the problem. This is a distributed application, so no way of knowing the user's printer ahead of time. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Birg

Thank you, but it is not a margin issue. It is a centering issue within given margins, any ideas?

Thanks, Birg

Why not attach a copy of your file so that I/we can see what you are having problems with.
