I wish I could be more helpful. Multiple pages is what EasyGrade Pro
does. It can be clunky, but I can't think of a better way. At the
very least it should not center the printout, since truncating the
left hand side (containing student name and overall grade) renders the
report completely useless.

Two thoughts that may be of help:

1. Shrink the font a wee bit more to add more real estate. The
average number of graded assignments that each teacher gives in a
quarter varies widely (the minimum in APS is supposed to be 8), making
assumptions about how many columns you need difficult. Still, the idea
situation is where all grades fit on a single sheet, so shrinking the
font as much as possible while still keeping the page readable
(opinions on what that size is probably vary as well :-( would help.

2. When one page won't do, print more than one page. Personally, I
wouldn't want the student name repeated on the second sheet, since
this would waste real estate, but I can imaging use cases where this
would be required. I can live with whatever you guys come up with in
that regard.

I wish I could be more helpful, Tom, and I certainly appreciate what a
challenge this is to do right.

Thanks!

If what EGP does is acceptable, perhaps you could just scan one of those for us?

I think this was fixed by Alan and it is now split into pages.
Or was it a different pdf?
