Hi Anand,
I have tested but did not see what is was wrong. In my preview it's looks like this:
- Screen126.png (29.4 KiB) Viewed 4109 times
Printing is off page.

Hi Pablo,
This is due to default printer, which is probably a DMP printer. Change the default printer and check.
Regards,
Anand

Yes Anand, the printer is a HP PCL 5 but I changed by Epson LX-300 (DOT printer) and it's little better but still out of page.

It's by this reason than Theo is laughing. Because he knows that I installed this HP printer by Theo demands.
Sorry Anand, at moment I can not revise what it could be wrong...

Hi Pablo,
I understand the problem is due to left margin.
A quick solution is to add <n> in the print command, as below,
@ nDevRow * 5, (nDevCol * 2.5) + 5.0 PRINT cVar // 5.0 added for left margin.
in function hbDevOut() in gHBPRINT.prg
Note that this is a quick crude way, till I figure out the margin setting commands in HMG.
Regards,
Anand

Hi Anand
I tried your program and get same output as you have shown.
However a few lines are printed beyond the page at the bottom.
When PDF File option is selected error msg PDF PAGE cannot be found is displayed twice, the PDF file is however correctly prepared.
Thanks

Hi RPC,
Yes, still some work is needed in different output. PDF, HTML, XLS etc. all need some work, including header and footer. I am busy with March year end works so please give me some time. I knew I was getting delayed so uploaded the same, so that others get the idea that I am trying to develop.
I hope this Report Class becomes useful for the HMG community.
Regards,
Anand
