Slow running report

[Kevin]

I have one report that when generated, runs very slow. I have other reports
with similar data (just in a different format) that work just fine. The slow
running report is a price proposal and contains a great deal of text on it.
It's about a 1 1/2 pages of contract related "fine print" which I entered
onto the report footer as labels. Would this slow down a report
dramatically? Is there a better way to do this, such as importing from a
Word document? Is there a way to evaluate if a specific report can run
faster, use less space, etc.?

Thanks in advance for any feedback!

I suspect your printer as the weak link. It cannot print the small fonts
without a lot of recalibration. True Type fonts can consume a lot of system
rescouses.
