Printing on a pre printed stationery

Question

Hi,
I am trying to print data on a pre printed stationery. On one physical page two copies (1+1) of report is printed horizontally side by side. On each logical page there is repeating frame that displays 4 rows of data across the page.Now as soon as the number of records become > 4, the 5 th record instead of moving to next physical page, overlaps and sets on the logical page on the same physical. what could be done such that the 5 th record and onwards prints on the next physical page alongwith the copy of the 5 th record also displayed on the next logical page.
thanks

Not sure if I fully understand your description, you might like to give an example of what data you have and what you want on each page.
However, for pre-printed forms, you typically use a fixed size frame to define the area that a repeating frame can print into. Alternatively you can use the "max records per page" property if you can guarantee that each record will only take up a specific amount of sapce.
Where physical vs. logical pages are concerned. You can only have multiple physical pages making up a single logical page. In your case, you seem to want to have multiple logical pages for each physical page. Since Reports will insert page breaks after each logical page, it will be difficult to do this.
If you need to get two sets of records onto a single physical page use an "across->down" repeating frame for a single repeating frame that encompasses one half of your physical (and logical) page.
