We recommend  that you keep the Miscellaneous settings checked for a cleaner report output. If you clear the Gridlines check box, the lines are removed from the printed report. If you clear the Break Rows check box, information from one record row may break and print on the following page. If you clear the Auto-fit check box, information will truncate onto the next page.
