  Hi all,

  My windows form uses a rich text box. The contents of which are populated from a database. Auto wrap is set to true.

  My application let's people print labels and preview it first (not using the print dialog preview, but I have created a panel which lays all out. This is so they can alter the content if needed).

  The issue I have is: when the user clicks the preview button the text in the rich text box wraps and all is as should be. However, when it prints, it doesn't wrap.

   string
   sDesc = rtxtDesc.Text; <br/>
   string
  [] aDesc = sDesc.Split(Environment.NewLine);
     foreach
   (string
   sLine in
   aDesc)
     {
      writer.WriteLine(sLine); 
     }
  
  
  
  //above doesn't work, neither does:
  
    int iLine = rtxtDesc.Lines.Length;
  
        for (int i = 0; i < iLine; i++) ;
  
        {
  
          writer.WriteLine(rtxtDesc.Lines.Length = iLine);
  
        }

  You can see what I was trying to do (althought C# doesn't like this)

  I am using a string writer and a string builder to send the information to the printer.

  Any ideas?
