Printing LARGE text control- Infopath 2003

J

James Nelson

Need to print text or rich text control with perhaps 40-50 lines of text, but
on Print prieview or print the control:

1) displays properly IF amount of text WILL fit only on current page
2) displays ONLY the portion of the control that wraps to the 2nd page of
preview / paper (with it's text), but NOT the 1st portion that would have fit
on 1st page

Margins or control sizes are not the problem
Have tried custom Print Views

Any help would be great

It looks like this was resolved in InfoPath 2007. You might also make sure
that you have the latest 2003 service pack installed--it might fix the
issue.

However, if that doesn't work, you can try creating a print view and using
an expression box instead of a rich text control. Expression boxes do not
normally show rich text content, but can be made to do so by expanding the
tempalte to separate files, editing the view .xsl file and changing the
<xsl:value-of select="my:MyRichTextField"/> to <xsl:copy-of
select="my:MyRichTextField/node()"/>

InfoPath will probably try to switch it back to <xsl:value-of/> if you
modify the view and save again, so you'll just need to watch out for that
reversion and go fix it up again.
