This is usually an issue related to the Screen Resolution setting on your computer.
  • Screen resolution refers to the clarity of the text and images displayed on your screen.
    • At higher resolutions, such as 1600 x 1200 pixels, items appear sharper. They also appear smaller so more items can fit on the screen.
    • At lower resolutions, such as 800 x 600 pixels, fewer items fit on the screen, but they appear larger.

Step 1. Select Control Panel to adjust Display

  • Click on the Start button.
  • Click on Control Panel.
  • Click on Display. (or Appearance and Personalization)
  • Make sure this is Smaller - 100%
 
  •  Select Change display settings to adjust resolution.
 
  • After changing it back, you may need to restart your computer for the changes to take affect.
  • If after doing the above, reports are still cut in half or are not appearing properly please contact Practical Systems on 1800 624 688
Note: Native Resolution
LCD monitors, including laptop screens, typically run best at their native resolution. You don't have to set your monitor to run at this resolution, but it's usually recommended in order to ensure you see the sharpest text and images possible. LCD monitors generally come in two shapes: a standard proportion of width to height of 4:3, or a widescreen ratio of 16:9 or 16:10. A widescreen monitor has both a wider shape and resolution than a standard ratio monitor.
If you're unsure of your monitor's native resolution, check the product manual or go to the manufacturer's website. Here are typical resolutions for some popular screen sizes:
  • 19-inch screen (standard ratio): 1280 x 1024 pixels
  • 20-inch screen (standard ratio): 1600 x 1200 pixels
  • 22-inch screen (widescreen): 1680 x 1050 pixels
  • 24-inch screen (widescreen): 1900 x 1200 pixels
