Thank you for your bug. Could you make a screenshot of the bug? Do you use the list view?

As described in the previous comments, your report lacks the information we need to investigate the problem further. We'll close this report for now - please reopen it if you can give us the missing information.

Here is the screenshot, as you can see, the phone number are not readable, and also the long names and so on...
It is a really basic print, I don't know what happend, in former version on evolution in was better !

I've sent the bug upstream, http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=451370

I have the same bug with last Ubuntu,Hardy upgraded from beta to today.
evolution:
  Installato: 2.22.1-0ubuntu2
  Candidato: 2.22.1-0ubuntu2
  Tabella versione:
 *** 2.22.1-0ubuntu2 0
        500 http://it.archive.ubuntu.com hardy/main Packages
        100 /var/lib/dpkg/status
distro:
Linux ubuntustudio 2.6.24-16-rt #1 SMP PREEMPT RT Thu Apr 10 15:15:40 UTC 2008 i686 GNU/Linux

I add this here,but it's a serious bug. It's the same print preview if you choose vertical/orizzontal page setup.

thanks

Unfortunately this bug and the inability to export contacts has forced me to keep using Windows and MS Outlook.

could you try if that's still an issue in hardy or intrepid?

Sebastian -

This is still an issue. I am using Evolution 2.22.3.1 in Hardy. The
contacts print fine when I use the address card view, but unfortunately,
there are way too many fields in this view. When I make up a custom
view by category and print it out the fonts are way to large and do not
fit into the grid.

I am attaching a pdf file of the printout.

Your help would be appreciated. If I could get this resolved, I would
be able to use Evolution instead of Outlook.

Thanks,

Jim Price

Sebastian -

This is a follow up to my reported bug 298443 Re: Contacts print preview. I regret to say that like Jim Price above, this is now the biggest issue preventing me abandoning Windows. Outlook is a very important programme and without a really good alternative we are stuck with Microsoft. In Evolution the email part is simple to set up and my calendar for the next year I can easily re enter manually.
However, like many people I have built up at least 300 contacts and the problems are -
1. I cannot import them from Outlook 2007 without many errors or missing fields
2. Having put in 3 or 4 contacts manually as a test, the print preview does not keep them in alphabetical order
3. As mentioned above, the boxes in print preview are too small for the data.

Solve these problems - give us a real alternative to Outlook - and you have a (with the exception of iTunes!) a total Ubuntu convert!
