Symptoms

The print preview is really funny / scrunched and the PDF has overlapping texting.Ā 
Thereā€™s a decent amount of text in the summary band and itā€™s almost like itā€™s not letting it stretch to a second page even though it needs to.

Cause

CharacterĀ LESS-THAN SIGN (<) in field source and <TF> in field's comment.

<TF> expects HTML element if found character LESS-THAN SIGN.

Workaround

ConvertsĀ LESS-THAN SIGN toĀ  vfpev element.

strtran(m.text, '<', "<vfpev>chr(60)</vfpev>")
