1. Re: Only first page printing
Can you upload a screen shot of the layout as seen in layout mode? That info may be helpful...

2. Re: Only first page printing
Here is a screen shot showing the same layout in two windows showing the top of the first page, and the bottom of the second. The procedure field spans both pages.

3. Re: Only first page printing
Just to check a detail I can't see in the screen shot, What layout part contains the procedure field? Is this the body part or might it be a sub summary or other layout part?

The procedure field is in the body. The footer and header indicators are visible in the left margin, everything else is body.

Hello David Graham:
Thank you for posting.
From the attached screen shot it appears the "procedure" field is extending beyond the page margin. Take notice of the dotted line that runs vertical down the right edge of the layout. Try resizing the procedure field so that line is completely visible.
The idea is to have all your layout objects contained inside the page margins.

Thanks, I hadn't noticed I had slipped over the page boundary while moving things around to see what might be causing the problem. Unfortunately it did not fix the problem. If things were working, wouldn't it just have printed more pages if I went over the page boundary?

Hello David Graham:
Thank you for posting.
Just to clarify. Are you attempting to print multiple records in a found set and only one is printing?
If so, check the print dialog box to ensure you not selecting to print only the current record.

I am trying to print a single two page record, so I have the setting set to Print Current Record. I do not want to print records being browsed.

9. Re: Only first page printing
I am assuming that you are printing by selecting print from the file menu. If I am wrong and you are using a script, then a closer look at your script may be helpful.
At this point, I suggest making a brand new layout as a test. Don't copy and paste any objects from your current layout, recreate them from scratch. See if you have the same issue with the new layout.

It was a problem with Filemaker. I was printing from the file menu, and recreating the layout did fix the problem, now all pages print. Thanks for your help.

11. Re: Only first page printing
For your info, making a new layout by copying and pasting from the original layout also worked.

12. Re: Only first page printing
The instruction not to copy in paste was a safety measuer.
If the original layout has been corrupted in some way, copying objects from it and pasting them into the new layout might copy and paste a damaged layout object and then your new layout might fail as well.
