I already found the cause of the problem. The lines extending to the Group footer are not from the details section. Rather, they are from the Page Header Section. Instead of creating lines that extend from the page header section to the detail section, I created them separately. That solved the problem. Thanks for reading this post.

What do I do after getting the number of pages? Is there a way I can get the page number of the page being printed in the PrintPage event so that I can do the following:

if (PageBeingPrinted<TotalPageCount)
   e.HasMorePages = true;
else
   e.HasMorePages = false;

Also, I get a blank page when I commented the following lines:

            // Calculate the number of lines per page.
            linesPerPage = e.MarginBounds.Height;
            printFont.GetHeight(e.Graphics);

            //Print each line of the file. 
            while (count < linesPerPage && ((line = streamToPrint.ReadLine()) != null))
            {
                yPos = topMargin + (count * printFont.GetHeight(e.Graphics));
                e.Graphics.DrawString(line, printFont, Brushes.Black, leftMargin, yPos, new StringFormat());
                count++;
            }

            //If more lines exist, print another page. 
            if (line != null)
                e.HasMorePages = true;
            else
                e.HasMorePages = false;            

What should I replace these lines with? I understand that in these line, data is printed line by line. What do I do in the case of a PDF file?

What does the following line do then?

printFont = new Font("Arial", 10);

Also, how will I determine the number of lines per page?

The page break depends on the conditions inside my Crystal Report with Groups.

I am trying to use PrintDocument but it in the PrintPage Event, it is asking for font. I am printing a PDF file and I want to retain the font used in the file. Currently, I am not sure of what to use to achieve this functionality.

Thanks for the reply guys. Is there a way to print multple copies and set collation using only PrintDocument?

I can't use the PrintDialog for my requirements.

I am actually printing about 300 files at one click. The files will be printed with the same number of copies (usually three). If a file has multiple pages, it will be printed with Collated property set to true else false. I need the collation set to suit the functionality of the new HP printer with an automated stapling capability.
