Re: Ace-Reports & printer commands

Are you also using bold or any other PCL commands on the same line, before the problem in position 80? Remember, Ace doesn't know those PCL characters won't print, it assumes they take up space on the page, so earlier PCL commands will throw the column count off on later column positioning statements.
