Hi, I am exploring the idea of using iReport 1.2.7 to generate receipt files that are exported to plain text. Besides all the content of the files, I also need to be able to generate certain control codes that the receipt printer will recognize in my file. These control codes include symbols like ↠( Hexadecimal 1B ), along with other hexadecimal/decimal characters. Whenever I export them to text, they come across as question marks. I've also noticed that the page size exported to text does not match up with the page size that I have set on my screen. Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Susan

I have used iReport in the past to generate reports for a project and have really enjoyed it. Now I'm working on a project which will require us to print receipts to a printer designed for that purpose. I was wondering if anyone on the forums had successfully done this before. Also if you have any tips or tricks, I would appreciate it. Thanks. Susan

Giulio, Thanks for the example. It helped me to figure out what I had done wrong. I had an extra group in my reports which didn't serve any real purpose. I deleted the group out and the report worked just fine. Thanks for your help. Susan

I am using iReport 1.1.0, although I have tried the same report with the newest version and got the same results. I am trying to create a barcode report that prints barcodes horizontally across the page. I have set the print option to print horizontally and the number of columns to 3. However, there appears to be a bug in this. The report will print horizontally for two columns but leave the third column completely blank. If I print the barcodes vertically, all three columns are filled in. Has anyone else experienced this same type of issue before? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance. Susan
