Hello,

I face alignment issue in all reports, where we design a report for a particular printer and printed in another printer.  The output is not as designed and we need to redesign it for that particular printer again.   This is more when we need to print in a pre-printed form and the user could choose to print in different printers.   We used to set all possible settings in dw itself and just a single line of code dw_1.print().  

Difference could be either margin (top & left), sometimes every column in grid / tabular dw need adjustment.  It becomes tedious when we need to redesign the same report for every printer (same client) or for every other client.   Even the same printer (model) attached to 2 different computers requires redesign. 

Looks like I'm missing some available configuration, but couldn't figure it out.   We used to set    Paper orientation, Paper size, Paper source, Margins in the Printer specification tab itself.  And just dw_1.print() command to print the dw.

What else I should set to get the exact output in every printer ?  Any direction to find the solution ?

This issue is with PB 10.5, Pb 11.5.  Not yet tested in PB 2017 for this particular issue.  

Happiness Always
