Is there any way to create page breaks in the calculations when printing? This would be nice to keep tables on one page and also to separate some of the calculations that are combined. Thanks in advance.

This is a normal consequence of COMPRESS. The COMPRESS reports are produced in 'html' format, as used by websites and many other documents and software. Even the PDF reports are generated from the original html report. The html report permits users to specify many font sizes, font types, etc, including US, European, and Asian, without any special problems of page breaks, etc. But the trade-off to this is that tables may be broken at any location and table headers are not subsequently reproduced on the sequential pages. Unfortunately there is no way to work around this in COMPRESS.

It is possible to save the report documents as html or pdf files and edit these in appropriate software. I do not encourage this. It may lead someone to change that inconvenient overstress situation to "OK!"; I have seen this done.
