Well, I would say we are not that far from that, at least for physical prints. You can replace automatic centering with Margin (in fact, it should rather be called "offset" or perhaps "topleft") and physical prints should be ok (but take into account that with real printers, there will be up to 5 mm difference from one sheet printed to another).

After that, I am willing to change PDF export too to comply, but I guess it might require some new parameters to Report/PdfDraw.

I see. So you think the calculations are reasonable precise to an error level of about a millimeter or two (more difference from intended positions could lead to trouble when the printer adds another 5 millimeters...) when I set up a table, using the relative distribution of columns and spaces with a precise font size and fixed margins for the cells. To be honest I had my doubts, when seeing all these differences with set and not set pagesizes or margins.
I will try this as soon as I find the time to do so.

New parameters for Report/PdfDraw are no problem for me. Wink

Thanks again, I will tell how things went after trying to create the first complying report.

Kind regards,

frozen
