The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, versions 2.5 and 2.5a

SUMMARY

In FoxPro for Windows, the Paper Size list box in the Print Setup dialog box (on the File menu) does not display the complete text of lengthy paper size descriptions. Since the list box is too narrow, the information on the various paper sizes is truncated.

To display the unabridged text description of the chosen item:

  1. In the Windows 3.1 Program Manager, choose the Control Panel icon in the Main group.

  2. Choose the Printer icon and set the default printer to the appropriate printer driver.

  3. Choose the Setup button.

  4. Click the Paper Size list box and note the complete size description.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

  1. Load the HP LaserJet IIIsi PostScript printer driver as the default printer for FoxPro for Windows.

  2. From the File menu, choose Print Setup. Under Paper, click the Size list box, and note that the Envelope Monarch 3 7/8 X 7 1/2 entry is truncated.
