I have an issue where the top margin of the first page is always 1/8 inch lower than other pages. This has created an issue with Inkjet printers in that the bottom line will be cut off. This is also an issue if trying to set up printing for a form as well.

I can shorten the first page by 1/8, then reset the top margin at the end of the first page and then I can get them to line up, but I shouldn't have to do that.

Has anybody else run into this issue and if so what have you done to resolve it?

Thanks,

Steve

    We noticed the same thing. We couldn't figure it out.
    We modified our forms. For us we also had issues with
    what the printer druvers could and could not do. So we
    just figured it was an issue with the drivers.

    Could this be related to the manner in which the first line is printed?

    Sometimes, if you are writing out a heading line, it forces a blank line at the start of the report.

    e.g WRITE PRINTLINE AFTER ADVANCING PAGE.

    sometimes does funny things.
