When proper I was thinking more along the lines of having IE "shrink" the page and place it between recurring footers and headers. Did that make sense? I really don't want to bother doing manual layout of header and footer, because it's bound to break sooner or later.

My problem is basically this: I write POS software for a living. That's the main problem. Roll eyes | :rolleyes: Receipts are normally printed on regular POS printers, e.g. 80 mm wide thermal printers. The follow up problem is that I have stubborn customers who really wants to print the receipts on A4 papers (for easier handling they claim). Basically, what they want is a receipt in an invoice-ish layout. So I figured I'd utilize IE for the rendering of such documents, since it comes with the operating system. No need to go through Crystal Reports hassles (which is a real pain in the buttocks, IMO). Does that explanation of how I want the layout make any sense?

I can live without fancy headers and footers, but it would sure give the printed stuff a far more professional look. Right now I'm using the standard headers and footers provided by IE, which can unfortunately only hold simple lines of text (you can see and modify them in the IE page setup page, and/or through a pseudo-undocumented ExecWB-feature).


Pardon my horrible english.. I've been working for 16 hours straight, and I'm about to fall asleep on the keyboard. Really, I mean it. Frown | :(
