I don't know what to say. In my FM 8.5, under Scriptmaker, under
heading 'Files', function 'Print', specify - Print options - there is
no option as in Print Records being browsed or current page, as there
is in, under heading 'Records', 'Save Records as PDF', then under
'specify option' there is a 'Records being browsed' option. I am at a
lost to explain this.
