Smartform line length

Hi experts,

As I know the default length of a line is 72 characters. Is there any possibilty to increase it? I want the lines to fit on my main window length, but my Font size is only 8. I don't want to increase the size. How can I achieve to fill the remaining spaces with characters. The text is coming from a variable with character size 100, but after the 72th character position the smartform drops a line.

Hi,

you can increase the text length by following ways.

Capital letters will occupy more space than small letters.

Suppose your text is like.

Ex: ABCdefg

it occupies say 10 characters.

if you make the above example like:

Abcdefg

it occupies 7-8 characters.

so try to convert some of the Capital and Bold Characters to small so that you can achieve the desired text.

Alternatively you can resize your left margin and right margin to 1cm left and 1 cm right(your or convenient length) then you can achieve the desired text.

Thanks,

Sree.

Hello t sree,

I don't want to make it capital letters, because it is not allowed. To adopt the margins is also not a good solution for me because the paper format is given.

I haven't find the solution yet. Buy the way, thanks for posting
