The NSLog from - Again, you're not providing enough information, but here are some questions to ask yourself. * What's printing is a view. How tall is that view? Is it tall enough to contain 500 lines? * Also: In drawRect:(NSRect)rect, what is rect? Those (and reading the docs) should lead to an "aha" moment... Also you might like to search the archives. Printing is really easy and you're making it hard for yourself, which is a pity. I've given some possibly useful hints here: http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/cocoa/2004/8/20/115128 http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/cocoa/2007/9/13/189212 http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/cocoa/2006/12/14/175913 http://www.cocoabuilder.com/archive/message/cocoa/2007/4/11/181739 I strongly suggest (as it says in one of those) that at first you completely ignore pagination. Don't implement anything except drawRect! Just create the view and draw it. Create it big enough for what needs to be drawn, and when the system asks you draw what goes in a certain rect, draw what goes in that rect. You will be amazed at how simple it all is. NOW you can start adding finesse if you want to. By the way, if you are implementing rectForPage in order to prevent lines from being split across pages, that is NOT how to do it.
