Why is my text running off the page?

Appraise-It attempts to calculate how much text can fit on a line before wrapping down to the next line, based on your current printer and display settings, and it is possible for it to be a little off, typically resulting in text extending beyond the border of the page. You can manually adjust this margin if Appraise-It's automatic calculations are incorrect.

1. Confirm that the Reformat Report option is checked in the Print dialog.

• If it is not checked, check it and print again to see if that resolves the issue.
• If checking it does not resolve the issue, or if it is already checked, proceed to step 2.

2. Go to Format ⇨ Report ⇨ Right Margin.
2. The default Right Margin setting is 98. Set it to 93.
3. Print an example page, to see if the text is now wrapping correctly.

• If the text is still running over slightly, go back to Format ⇨ Report ⇨ Right Margin and lower the setting further.
• If the text is now wrapping too soon, go back to Format ⇨ Report ⇨ Right Margin and raise the setting a little.

It may take a few tries to match the text wrapping to your expectations, but when it is, this setting will be retained for future print jobs.
