    Hi all,

    FinalWriter is the only program which printing works with my bubble-jet printer (Canon BJC 210 on parallel port).
    My problem is when I am at the end of the first page, FW still writes at the same position (or in the bottom margin) instead opening a new page.
    Anyone solved the same problem ?

    Can't reproduce your problem here (FW97).

    Same here. FW97 works just fine.

    Ok, it works now ! After several tests, it works with a 256-color 8-bit mode and nothing else.

    But other problems are still there : I can't see the window scroller and the mouse pointer when it is above the white page.

    Hello Corto,

    I just tried FW again and I'm using as screen setup:

    - Same as workbench
    - Number of Colors: 256

    With this setup I have the scrollbars. Mouse pointer isn't visible when going over the page, but in the toolbar you can see the pointer.

    And this is at this moment the only program which prints all colors correctly :-)

    I've still got one problem with FW:

    I can't save my docs!!

    When trying to save I see in Snoopdos:

    FW5_Process.1 OpenLib fwfiltertype.library ver 0 OK

    So I guess it something to do with that library?!

    Anybody ideas?

    Hi guys !

    Thank you very much for your answers. I tried again and :
    - I didn't see the scroll bar but she was there ... just out of the screen due to the screenmode :(
    - I have to chose a private screen with the same properties than "Workbench" if I don't want to see Final Writer changing the Ambient screenmode !! So I use a 800x600x16 mode with 256 colours.
    - My first problem certainly came from a trashed file ...
    - The invisible pointer is really annoying :(
    - Spidey, I don't know about this library : I have the same output in SnoopDos and it works.
    - I tried to copy/paste a text but it causes so many hits !!
    - I will spread all your advices to the french community :)

    Here I am again, :-)

    Just checked Final Writer on my A1200 and I see it doesn't work there either!

    Perhaps I've got a problem with the afore menioned library.

    That fwfiltertype.library of mine is only 656 bytes. Could someone check how big his/her lib is?
    I really would appreciate it :)

    Hi Spidey !

    The size of the library here is 2368 bytes. I can send it to you. Just ask for it by email at :
