Landscape Printing

[Andrew Wiseman]

Can anyone print landscape using infopath 2007? I can print preview it as
landscape but when it prints it comes out portrait.

Hi, Andrew:

I just tested printing in landscape. I set the view to print in landscape,
previewed my form, and printed it -- it did print in landscape, not portrait.

Hi Hilary,

Can you tell me what settings you edited just incase I'm missing something.
All I've edited is the settings in views.

All I changed was the View setting from Portrait to Landscape -- nothing else.

If I save as source files both the manifest and template are able to print
landscape OK. It seems to be when they are packaged something happens. I've
tried using Infopath on another PC to see if there was something wrong on my
PC but it does the same.

Well, let's see. To troubleshoot this, I'd suggest the following:

Create another view in the form, try setting it to landscape and printing

Create another form (just a simple one, or customize a sample) and try
setting a view in it to landscape

That should help you figure out if it is the view or the form..... since it
prints correctly from manifest.xsf, it doesn't seem to be your printer... and
you checked on another PC (which was smart, by the way...)

I've created another template and it works OK so something must have got
messed up with the one I'm having problems with. I'll just recreate the
origional rather than trying to fix it.

Thanks for the help.
