The system allows printing report width of which, that is, the total width of all fields in horizontal format, exceeds page width.

Printer | Serves for selecting a printer and its settings. If the mode of printing to file is chosen, after beginning of printing the system will request the file name. |
Print range | Serves for specifying the range of printed records. Radio buttons All records, Records from… to…, Selection permit specifying the range of records being printed. The radio button Selection will be enabled only if the browsed query which has selected records is printed. The checkbox Pages from… to… allows specifying the range of printed records by indicating the range of pages. When specifying the range of pages limitation imposed on the range of records is also taken into account. |
Copies | Allows specifying the number of copies and method of page collation. |
Format | Radio buttons allow choosing one of the three variants of locating field values of each record on the page. If Vertical format is specified, name and value of one record field is printed in every line. In this case each record occupies as many lines as many fields are available in the query being printed. If Horizontal one-line format is chosen, every record occupies one line, that is, the report looks similar to the query browsed on the screen. The difference of one-line horizontal format from Horizontal multiline format is that if the field value exceeds the width set for it, it is cut for one-line format as in display in the browser window while it is printed in next lines for multiline format. |
Page margins | Serves for specifying page borders when printing. To select paper format the button Properties of the pane Printer should be used.
