PiWeb report cutting off last dimension

Recommended Posts

Hello Zeiss world

I have been having issues with my PiWeb print out cutting off the last dimension on the page. Does anyone know if this is a problem I can fix in a PiWeb or Calypso setting?
The report prints just fine when I print it from my computer PDF save directory.

Thank you!

Seems like PiWeb template needs resizing / correcting height. PDF can vary in height so when printing it can fit content to A4 paper ( it will be smaller in width to fit height ).

You will need to edit the template.  I've attached the settings within the PiWeb editor.  Adjust to suite your needs.  I wouldn't bother with changing the width as A4 is narrower than Letter and there are a tons, (yes, metric tons) of objects to edit to take advantage of the wider format.

Hello again guys

I have another development on this issue. While the suggested fix did prevent the report from cutting off the dimension from the bottom of the page, now it is eliminating the dimension all together. I also noticed the page number is not being displayed on any of the pages. I attached 2 "snips" of the PiWeb reports from the run screen, and scanned in the same 2 reports as they were printed. Any help on this is greatly appreciated. I only recently got management to purchase Calypso training, still working on the PiWeb training...

I have a few questions.

Was that template with initial problem edited before or it was original template from ZEISS?
Would usage of original template get rid of those problems?
Was it working from the begining?

I am wondering if there is problem with template or printer settings.

So, Loren, would you say that PiWeb "saves the user time" and that report generation is easy, intuitive and customizable 😏?

The only edits I made to the original template was changing some header inputs to adapt to our company needs, and removing the additional true position (M.) line.

I just tried changing back to the standard protocol and its back to cutting off the last dimension...There must be some miscommunication between the print output and my printer, because the PDF saves perfectly and the PiWeb report window displays fine on the screen (full page, page number included, etc.) The particularly strange thing is, its only the immediate, post inspection run print out that does this (cuts the page short). If I print again from the report display window, it prints out the full report.
