Title: Using HTML File type
Post by: pmpenchoff on February 20, 2026, 04:40:18 PM
We are attempting to print our standard print-outs using the file type of *HTML* and out of the box the page is being rendered, however we would like to NOT have the Page info on the top of each page. We would also like to be able to control the rendering to either portrait or landscape. One other thing we have noticed is that in the rendering, our TOP doesn't line up with the HTML page-breaks in the rendered page. Are there other properties and methods associated with this file type as there is with the *PDF*?

The HTML wrapper for your output is generated by *dev/html.  Its a pretty basic program that can be modified in order to customize your output.

I don't know if this would be applicable to your case, but you might consider using the Report Writer as it can create HTML output.
