Printable Price list :: support thread

[cookiesa]

sorry should add the header and footer are turned "on" in the pricelist profile pages and the footer prints, just not the header.

Printing on A4 but think it is a margain/page size issue. I have played with the sizes under admin with no luck

Hi all !

I have installed the latest version . All is ok but truncate descriptions function doesn't work.

I set different values but nothing changes.

Even if "Trucate description =0" the descriprion is truncated always in the same place

What's wrong ?

Thank you in advance

Has anyone ever figured out how to setup the pricelist to print correctly on letter size paper (8.5in x 11in)??? I've played around with the settings but nothing seems to work...

thanks.

Check the settings for your printer when it goes to print. There is often a check box for "fit to page" or something similar. It might be under advanced settings or something like that.


My printouts fit very nicely onto letter size paper, are clearly readable, and I've never modified anything.

Thanks for the reply. When I select print preview in IE7. And choose shrink to fit, the top of the second page appears on the bottom of the first page.

This happens on every page I view and it progressively moves up so the top of the page moves up the page until it starts over again about page 11.

Thanks.

Hi all,

I'm really sorry to have to post this because I'm sure there is someone else who has asked it before...

I have no background with SQL things and so far I've learnt alot about various aspects of the whole ZenCart package and my website works really well (after many months of "learning" I should add.)

Anyway... I'd really like to add this mod successfully first time... rather than fiddle with it in the wrong way and guess things...!! I've loaded the first sql item (pricelist-3.sql) and its showing up under the admin: config: (1,2,3) area.... but the part that loses me is:

(from the readme)

Use the zen sql tool (admin=> Tools :: Install SQL Patches) to load the sql (copy and paste into the text area, do NOT use the file upload feature!).
In rare cases the tool does not work, use phpMyAdmin in those cases (think about adding the table prefix if needed).

---------

What do I put into this tool to load the sql?!! Is there a standard text somewhere for loading the sql?

I've done sql patches before - I understand the idea of it but I've got no clue what to type in to actually execute this requirement.... I've always used the patches included with the documentation...

I'm sorry to have to ask, I feel quite stupid, but I've gone through a lot of the 29 pages worth of support and didn't see someone else ask - and I only have SO long to sift through the threads....

Thanks guys...

Kristan

Its real simple....open the sql file in notepad, then select all and copy. Goto to the spl patch tool in the admin and paste the code you just copied and hit send. Thats all there is to it.

Thank you very much...

You know I half-wondered if thats all it was, but as I said in my original post, I didn't want to do anything wrong in the first place to stuff it up!!

Thanks again
Kristan.

Has no one else experienced this?

Select print preview in IE7 and choose shrink to fit, the top of the second page appears on the bottom of the first page. This happens on every page and it progressively moves up ( top of the page moves up the page until it starts over again about page 11)????

What settings are peope using for US letter size?

Thanks.

@gsdcypher:

Yep, i had this problem as well.....
I am using the Pricelist Profile-1.
Don't know if it is something to do with IE7 or not.....but my fix was to change the 'Printable Page Height' to 26.5cm.
I have a feeling it is something to do with 'Shrink To Fit' changing the size of the tables - but this worked for me. Give it a go and see.......
