For example; 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 Hello Will print as; 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 1234567890 Hello (I've shortened the single line above to fit it to this box, but you get the idea..) The print preview window also shows this incorrect layout. Widening it prior to printing corrects the view on the screen but the printer still prints the incorrect layout. Switching to Landscape cures the problem. The paper size is A4 but Letter size also gives the same problem.

Is there a setting anywhere to set the rendered page width? Mon, 07 Feb 2005 18:28:50 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/1318#t5281 I would vote for this as bogus. It sounds like you are expecting that what you see on the message view screen should be the way it prints out. For flowed text, this could not be farther from the truth. In fact, we just pick an arbitrary number (90 characters, to be exact) where we wrap flowed text. It sounds like the print window may not be sized properly to ever display 90 characters exactly (in fact, this would be a pain to do cross platform/browser).

Imagine if I print the text I've typed here - it was typed without any line breaks, I've just allowed it to flow. Now, if I were to print this from IMP, line breaks would be inserted and break up the flowed text, giving something like; It's not that I'm expecting the printed output to look exactly as what appears on screen - obviously this does depend on the width of the display window, it's just that extra line breaks seem to be inserted in the printed output.

Obviously they aren't, but has dented their confidence a bit. If this isn't something that's easily 'fixable', can you tell me where the arbitary width of 90 is set so I can fiddle? Cheers :) Tue, 08 Feb 2005 02:33:10 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/1318#t5289 OK - I see the issue now. The workaround - just turn off line wrapping completely for flowed text in the print screen. Fixed in HEAD and 4.0.2. Tue, 08 Feb 2005 08:22:28 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/1318#t5299 Works nicely. Thanks guys :) Tue, 08 Feb 2005 13:44:15 +0000 https://bugs.horde.org/ticket/1318#t5333
