2000 > page width no ?

You can try that :

Select the gb.report (not finished but...)

Dim hRichText as ReportRichText
Dim hLabel as New ReportLabel(Report)

Report.Size ="A4"
Report.Resolution = Printer.Resolution
Report.Padding = "1.5 cm"
Report.Spacing = "0.3 cm"


hLabel.Text = "My Title"
hLabel.Font = Font["16, Bold"]

hRichText = NewReportRichText(Report)

hRichText.Expand = True
hRichText.Text = "<b>your text</b>"

Draw.Begin(Printer)
	Report.Draw(1)
Draw.End


... not tested
