Page Length
RBF automatically formats reports in numbered pages. A report page length is determined by its number of lines. RBF uses two different default page lengths—one for reports displayed on a screen and one for reports sent to a file or printer:
• Default screen page length equals 20 lines
• Default file or printer page length equals 61 lines
Report page lengths include all report lines, including title, trim, headings, detail lines, headers, and footers.
You can specify a different page length for a report by moving the cursor to the Page Length field and entering a new number of lines. The number of lines you enter here is applied to reports displayed on your screen as well as reports sent to a file. If you leave this field blank, the defaults are 20 lines when the report is written to a screen and 61 when the report is sent to a file or printer. To suppress all pagination (that is, to eliminate all breaks), enter a zero (0) in this field.
Most printers print six lines to the vertical inch. Some printers print eight lines per inch and some can be set to a variable number of lines per inch.
