Error printing with custom paper size

Former Member

I am getting an error when printing a report with a cutom paper size through our ERP system. The error message reads "Error attempting to read records for report: -2147191166 Page Header plus Page Footer is too large for the page."

The report works fine through crystal itself, but maybe a newer active x fpr crystal might do the trick. I would appreciate any help on this.

kind regards

Seán

Apply the same setting at your server also.

Hi Sean,

Save you report by selecting the option 'No printer'. This option  you will find as follows

Open your report in Crystal Reports >> File >> Page setup >> no printer (check box)

Now print your report for your ERP system

Thanks for your reply, I should have mentioned that I have tried this also. The problem then is that when no printer is selected, the default paper sizes are A4, A5, B5, Legal and Letter.

When I try and run the report with no printer selected it does run without the error message, but when I try and select a printer and use my custom paper size in the ERP system it prints but it also prints a load of blank pages.
