Application crashes after printing in windows Vista? Crazy!!

Post by no1g8tor » Sat Feb 09, 2008 6:06 am

I just finished my program that took me 2 months. and it works great in RunRev but when I Compile it and make is an exe. 2 Crazy things happen.

When I print it will only goto record 4 and then windows comes up and says stopped working. Prints all when in Run Rev.

Fonts on form look and are placed different.

If this cant print then this is no good?

PLEEEEEAAAASE Help.

Thank you

Which printing method are you using?
- are you printing prepared texts using revPrintText or revPrintField,
- or are you printing cards and stacks using print stack/card commands?

If you are printing cards or entire stacks, then the next thing to check is: are the formatForPrinting and textFont/texttSize/textStyle properties of the stack set correctly?

Hope this gets you closer to a solution.

Thank you for the reply. I did not set the fonts and just left them to the default. When I set them to a specific font, everything went fine.

I appreciate the help.
