• If you’re printing a layout with data that extends beyond the right margin, choose File menu > Print Setup (Windows) or Page Setup (OS X), select the horizontal (landscape) orientation, then click OK (if this doesn’t provide enough width, try reducing the size of the printed area by typing a value of less than 100% for scaling in the Print Setup dialog box (Windows) or Page Setup dialog box (OS X).
• You can “close up” blank space when printing records with varying amounts of data by specifying sliding options. You can also use merge fields to eliminate extra blank space in field data. See Removing blank spaces in printouts and Placing merge fields on a layout.
• When you print a field or a portal with a scroll bar, FileMaker Pro prints only the data visible without scrolling. To print all the data, duplicate the layout and enlarge the field or portal to display the largest possible amount of data. Then specify sliding options to remove the extra blank space when you print. See Adding fields to a layout and Removing blank spaces in printouts.
• When you print layouts containing panel controls, only the front-most tab panel or slide panel prints.
