Problem

The columns in the printout reports are wrapping around to the next line. How can this be adjusted?

Solution

  1. Try adjusting the margins in the page setup dialog
  2. Consider changing the page size or change the orientation to landscape, in the page setup dialog. You may need to do this from the File menu before opening the report.
  3. You may need to change you text size in your operating system settings from medium or large to small. In most Operating System versions you can do this under Control Panel > Fonts > Change Font Size.
  4. Try using a different printer or printer driver. This can impact the appearance of the report. If you have a print-to-PDF printer driver available, you can try setting this as the default printer, which has been known to help as well.
  5. For flextable reports, if you're using a version of a product that supports it, consider using the "report in XML" option (see button at top of flextable) See more here: Customizing FlexTables for viewing and reporting data -- Moving, adding, and removing columns
  6. If you're using a version of a product that supports it, consider exporting to another format. For example as of the CONNECT Edition releases of the storm/sewer and water products, the Custom Reports feature can export data to a spreadsheet. In flextables, you can also use the export button in the upper-left corner.
  7. For PondPack, make sure that you are using the latest version with the latest available cumulative patch set applied. See articles in the "See below"
  8. For FlowMaster, see the article below for adjusting overlapping text in the footer.

The footer of the reports generated in Flowmaster is overlapping or I want to remove the footer.
