Hi ,

I require the default print option of my webfocus report as Landscape.
I tried changing the
orientation=Landscape

ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
ON TABLE SET STYLE *
UNITS=IN,
SQUEEZE=ON,
ORIENTATION=LANDSCAPE,


but it doesnt work, I still get the default as potrait.
Does any one has a solution for this?
I am using HTML output
Any kind of help is welcome.
Thanks in advance

I'm of a thought that you are trying an option that doesn't work in the web html output world, You might try SET STYLEMODE = FIXED to see what you get, but that will most likely not be what you want, then there is the SQUEEZE option to OFF that might help.

Okay all you other experts.

In dev studio, select the Window/Options menu, and click the reporting tab to see what your default style sheet name is set to (the install default is deflt.sty). Go to the \ibi\DevStudio7x\bin directory and manually edit the style sheet to enter LANDSCAPE. It will then default to LANDSCAPE for all new reports.

I don't think this is a very good solution, but printing an HTML document in landscape is discussed here: Force Specific Content to Print in Landscape Orientation. It involves rotating the HTML page by 90 degrees...

I use an activeX process supplied by MeadCo. I included an example in this post

You've already got the correct answer and a couple of suggestions, but here's my two cents.

In the HTML/web world, printing and display are completely separate issue. What you see is very rarely what you get printed. So there is really no concept of "LANDSCAPE" output unless you are dealing with a fixed-page output like PDF. Also page-breaks are another issue entirely.

A couple more ideas - manually control font size and margins until your printed output appears like you want. Turn the default printing for the printer you use to Landscape as well.

Alternatively, if you want printed output then use a suitable format, such as PDF, PS etc....
