Thank you Victor ... this was an older query and I did manage that workaround. ... these odd little quirks cause so much when we expect all to be just right!!!
I have found that just selecting all on a report and pasting onto an Excel sheet does give so much more formatting options, and once a year for that is OK.

Copying to a spreadsheet really isn’t a great solution after you’ve figured out how to get an invoice formatted the way you want and then after a couple of years generate an invoice with too many lines and it breaks in the middle of a line badly… That said, the customer for which we had the long invoices is no longer a customer of ours, so I haven’t needed the workaround in years, but I’m reasonably certain it still works. The workaround I used was to save the report as HTML and then open it in a browser that respects the tag that tells it not to let that happen. Yes there is such a tag and it is used in the reports, but it is optional (!) for browsers to respect that tag when generating a print version of the page. If I recall correctly, Safari is based on the same code as used in GnuCash, and does not respect it, but FireFox does respect it. I didn’t try Explorer or Chrome, since I had found a solution. From the right browser you can send it to the printer or to a PDF writer and get the correct result. > On May 23, 2018, at 11:04 AM, davidbrown.r...@photos.bozeat.biz wrote: > > I note that when printing a report to a PDF file, the page set up is a > bit hit and mis when multiple pages.
