This is a none File Manager bug. File Manager ignores the height of text when determining whether or not to send the last line on each page. The net result is the following: If there is only one pixel height left on the page, File Manager still sends a full line of text, even if the line of text is 50 pixels tall. The result is the line of text being clipped. The workaround is to print the file from Notepad, which is at least somewhat intelligent. Remember, in Windows, the !application! determines what goes on each page - the driver has no control of this - it just does the best job it can with what it is sent. Note that you will see this bug with many other printers/drivers. On most, you'll just "lose" the last line on each page - on some, you'll get that line by itself on a new page. bob taylor HP Vancouver p.s. Yes, I know I used none instead of known on the first line of this post - it's early and I'm still half asleep.
