Print to Preprinted Form
Any suggestions about how I can print report fields onto the appropriate
places on pre-printed forms? For example, could I apply a celluloid grid to the preprinted form to determine the coordinates at which I want to print the fields? Is there an easier way? P.S. I bought Omnipage 5 and hate it. Thanks |

Thanks It's a tedious process. You could scan a sample document to create an image that you use as a background picture in your report. This will allow you to go back and forth from preview to design view instead of having to actually print a record while you are getting your controls into the proper positions. The scan won't be perfect, but it should make getting the controls close to where they belong a lot faster. Once that step looks good you remove the picture and try printing onto some actual pre-printed stock and I'm afraid from there on it's a trial and error process. -- I don't check the Email account attached to this message.
