Print Problem - Overlapping text

[Leon]

I am trying to print varaible data, namely, my counter variable "x" in the below statement.

e.Graphics.DrawString(text & x , printFont, System.Drawing.Brushes.Black, 0, 0)

For example, if I want to print 5 pages and print 1 on page 1 and 2 on page, etc.

What seems to happen is that the numbers overlap on each 5 pages.

x is my counter. when x = 5, then I set "HasMorePages = False"

Why does my variable counter data overlap on EACH PAGE?

Please post your PrintPage event handler.

Ok say you want to print five pages. I will show you how it should be so, you can compare it with your code and fix up the bug if any
