There seems to be a printing bug for BusinessObjects 5.0.1 reports that use the “Fit to” or “Adjust to %” settings in the Page Setup. The Page Setup options do not work when printing one tab on a report. I see the report fitting to one page in Print Preview but when I go to print, the report will run off the page. When printing multiple tabs on a report, the bug seems to affect only the first tab while the remaining tabs print correctly.
The bug exists on machines with BusinessObjects 5.0.1 (Service Pack 1) but not on BusinessObjects 5.0 reports. Any thoughts?
I have noticed this problem as well. Any other victims out there? Does anyone know if it exists in 5.0.2?

This is a known bug and there is a patch for it that can be applied to 5.02. Log a case and request CSP63.

Try installing a Postscript driver. This should fix the fit to page problem. If you are unable to use this type of driver, then there is a CSP that I know of that fixes this too.
