The application that I'm currently working on has a funky set up for the invoices that they print.

The form is the invoice that is printed out. I took a look at the Northwind DB and what it does is and it actually generates a report based on the record's information.

What are the limitations of using Forms vs. Reports for printing out reports? One of the limitations that I've run into so far is that the printed page is jam packed with information (all required) to fit on a single page, yet there is lots of wasted space for some stuff since elements on the page don't shrink or grow due to what's inputted into the textboxes.

How are invoices designed for your applications? How do you handle space restraints for creating invoices?
