Thanks Christopher

That helped - I switched to the "CSS-based stylesheet (experimental)" and then did a bunch of modifications to make it look like my old "Easy" based report, including the one you suggested.

If it helps anyone, here are the mods I added to the end of the CSS, including the option of adding a banner image-

/* Center body and make it A4 width */
body {
   width: 210mm;
   margin-left: auto;
   margin-right: auto;
}

h3 {
    background-image: url(/home/share/james/work/fusionsystems/logos/final/banner_small.png);
    padding-top: 60px;
    background-repeat: no-repeat;
}

/* Details table (ie 5th table) to be fill body */
body > table:nth-child(5) {
   width: 100%;
}

/* Details table (ie 5th table) last 3 rows to be highlighted - totals */
body > table:nth-child(5) tbody tr:nth-last-child(-n+3) {
    background-color: yellow;
}

/* Customer and Company tables to have a bit of space below them */
body > table:nth-child(3) {
  margin-bottom: 1em;
}


Thanks again

James

You could edit the "CSS-based stylesheet (experimental)" and use this instead of "Easy", Then add somewhere

    I've just migrated from an old 3.5x version to 4.8 and copied
    across my
    saved report configurations.

    I have two - my invoice and customer report based on the "Easy
    Invoice"
    report with "Easy" stylesheet and "Customer Report" also with "Easy"
    stylesheet.

    The problem is that for some reason the customer information in the
    report which is in the header in the left hand column, is not left
    aligned any more.

    I exported to HTML to see what was going on and the problem is
    that the
    table containing the customer information has its margins set to
    "auto".
    This means that it is effectively centred in the table cell that
    wraps it.

    On the Easy Invoice report I can add some custom css:

    .client-table > table {width:100%;}

    This fixes it there but there is no custom css option for the
    "Customer
    Report".

    That one also exports with the table definition as follows:

    <table cellspacing="1" cellpadding="1" border="0"
    style="margin-left:auto;margin-right:auto;">

    Does anyone know where I can hack the source somewhere that causes
    this
    table to be given these auto margin properties?

    (or if there's a cleaner way of doing it, I'm all ears)

    Thanks
