Hi there... Is anybody running PAF 5.0 without problems? I had installed it but could not print reports. So I'm back to 4.0 and all works well. 5.0 would print the blank forms and all the notes and "prepared by" info. It would not print the info as shown in the "print preview". Printer settings and Paf report settings were all default settings.

Lyle;

I am not sure what list you sent this question to. It is the most perplexing problem with PAF 5.0. I have two printers. One has this problem (an older NEC lazer printer) and the other does not (a newer Cannon inkjet). As I understand the problem it is due to a problem with Windows and not PAF. The PAF 5.0 program has "disclosed" this problem by using the glyph printing capability of Windows. This is necessary to print languages such as Chinese, Japanese and Korean.

The most commonly "solution" is to go to the site for your printer manufacturer and download a newer version of the printer driver for your printer. Some people have substituted a driver for a more recent model of printer from the same manufacturer. This was the solution suggested to me by a person from the Family History Department. They tried hard, but unfortunately, this did not work for me so I use the inkjet printer.
