Remarks

Physical margin/Logical margin

Each printer includes a physical margin where no print is allowed. The BottomMargin, RightMargin, LeftMargin and TopMargin properties are used to define "logical" print margins.

If the physical margin is greater than the logical margin: The logical margin is ignored. The report will be compressed in order to be printed on a single page. To prevent report compression, select "Print the report as it is" in the report description window ("Options" tab).
If the physical margin is less than the logical margin: The logical margin is taken into account. The physical margin is ignored.

iEndPrinting cancels the margins.

Limit

The TopMargin property applies only to reports.
