Hi,

While using Report for print documents I was struggling to get correct positioning of the printed area on the paper. With present code when Report.Margins(x,x) is 'NULL' then only it is possible to get centered print.

Then I noticed the bool center is set as true in declaration and was not used by functions calling this routine.

void   Print(Report& r, PrinterJob& pd, bool center = true);

I made some changes in the ReportDlg.cpp and Report.h files.

My changes are basically in these functions

void   Print(Report& r, PrinterJob& pd, bool center = true);
bool   DefaultPrint(Report& r, int i, const char *_name = t_("Report"), bool center = true);
bool   Print(Report& r, int i, const char *name = t_("Report"), bool center = true);
bool Print0(Report& r, int i, const char *_name, bool dodlg, bool center);

Also I have added option in report window to select 'centered' printing.

I am attaching my zipped Report folder and also my patch files.

It is working for me. My changes may be useful to somebody.
