Hi All,

Need your expertise to solve an issue. I am designing a project using vb .net and using crystal report for reporting purpose. There is a report for printing customer account details. This report will be printed on a passbook. Report is displaying required content properly but the passbook need to be inserted 90 degree rotated as printer is not accepting. So i need to print the report 90 degree rotated but while print preview crystal report should show it properly.

Any setting so that when it is printed it will print whole report 90 degree rotated.

I am using only detail section of report. I have a workaround of rotating the text 90 degree but it has following flow -
1. While print preview it will show whole report 90 degree rotated.
2. I have to redesign whole report considering every thing 90 degree.

Need this solution at very urgency. Many thanks for all your inputs.

I tried your solution but not able to find "Format Axis Label" and was not able to do rotation. I am using Crystal Report v13.0. Can you please send a snapshot of the solution.

Solution 2

Try to determine what printer language the passbook supports and then create and send to it the required commands instead of using Crystal Reports or any other reporting tools. It's likely the passbook supports ESC/P commands which is a very simple language. If you have to print just text, then it should take you a couple of minutes to get it working.

The product will be installed at multiple location and learning printing command will not be a better option at 12th hour of project. Any other solution will highly be appreciable.
