page break issue

Hi

page breaks heavily depend on the installed printer driver and the capacity of the printer installed. If your printer can do A3, but your friend's can't, you'll end up with significantly different numbers of pages.

If your printer can print to 0.5 cm to the lower edge of the page, but your friend's can't, you'll end up with significantly different numbers of pages.

Also, pages will break only between cells, so if you have cells with several lines of text, that will fit nicely on a page for one printer, the next computer may need to take double the amount of pages, because it just don't fit.

Blank pages with just header and footer most probably have their cause in a manually set page break, assuming a print capability that the poor target printer can't produce, so the result is split between two pages.

check your page layout, the respective printer capacity with regards to page margins and paper size and streamline to the common (i.e. smallest) denominator. (is that the correct term?). Be generous with margins. Give the data some leeway. Be prepared to sacrifice a couple of square inches of white space for the benefit of the report running OK on all kinds of printers.
