Re: Problems Using Sqrviewer and printing
You can't print from the SPF Viewer
if your SQR is using the older version of PeopleSoft setup files (like
SETUP01.sqc, SETUP02.sqc, ...2a, ...... ). The output shows similar to the one
you run it to printer however, you have to adjust/ zoom out
your file in SPF Viewer to see the complete page and you can't print it
from the SPF Viewer. PeopleSoft is delivering new setup files (SETUP31.sqc,
32.sqc, PTPSP125.sqc, PTPLS160, 177 & 215) to over come this problem and we
can view the output and print it from the SPF Viewer for all the reports that
use these files. PeopleSoft has modified many reports to the new Setup files and
they are yet to complete the process. There are some of the SQR which uses
"DECLARE PROCEDURE", "DECLARE PRINTER", etc., which should be
replaced by DECLARE-PROCEDURE,
DECLARE-PRINTER, etc., if you are using SETUP31 or
32.
However, there are some known
problems we have faced and here is how to over come it.
To my knowledge these setup files are defined for a POSTSCRIPT and HPLASERJET
printers and you should specify which Printer and Paper Size you are using in
the SETENV.sqc. We have faced text over lapping in SPF Viewer few weeks back for
some of the reports using new setup files. We are using HP printer where as the
PRINTER_TYPE in setenv.sqc was specified to use LINEPRINTER which was the
culprit.
The report you mentioned PAY004.sqr
uses setup02.sqc which is one of the older version of PeopleSoft setup files.
You may modify the report to use the SETUP32.sqc instead of setup02 and see the
output.
Hope it works for you.

Subject: Problems Using Sqrviewer and
printing
I have tried to used sqrviewer a with a ps delivered sqr pay004
it is a
report of the check register.
I tried using the -nolis and -keep
parms. I successfully create the
.spf file. I can view it with
the
sqr viewer. The problem is when printing It spans two
pages
landscape.
I am using a HP laser with ps.
Is there something I
am missing to correct this?
