QRRichEdit Problem

I have inherited a fairly complex Delphi app which uses RichEdit
components extensively, including QRRichEdit components for reporting. I recently upgraded it from Delphi 3 to Delphi 5. I have the latest service packs for Delphi 5 and QuSoft.

My problem is that, while the Richedit components stretch
correctly in preview, and when printing on my client's printers (mostly HP in various configurations) under Windows 2000, they
throw a new page and do not print the page footer under Windows 95, 98, and NT4.

I have an HP Deskjet portable at home which behaves similarly
under Windows 98. It works fine until the text meant to go into
the RichText component exceeds the design size, and then it spits out the page, despite AutoStretch being set to true.

I have an old NEC pinwriter P5 dotmatrix at home, and the report
prints perfectly on this under Win 98. But it is messed up totally on the HP.

I have the latest printer driver for my HP printer also.

This is a long shot, but does anyone have any pearls of wisdom
for me? nothing in the QUSoft knowledgebase appears relevant.

TIA

Andrew

Hi, i have the same problem ( see below ). In the FAQ from QUSoft they wrote
about this problem. It seems that the Richedit-Api-function does not work
correct in the preview. They wrote also that they develope a work-around.
But i have not find it yet. I still need a replacement for the
QRRichEdit-component !!!

I am using the TQRRich98 component downloadable from www.qusoft.com.
It seems to work well.

An other option are the QRPrintable Substitutions 1.4 from Projekt-Info:

http://www.project-info.all.ru/pisoft/qrprn2k.htm

It's free and works well.

Sorry, this is not on topic but I have looked at these components and they
seem pretty good.
Unfortunately they only work with 3.0.5 not 3.0.7, 3.0.8 or 3.5.0 - their
last update on the web site was April 2000.

I have tried e-mailing them but it got bounced back.

Does anyone know what happened to them. If so can they let me know.

Cheers

Andrew
