Filemaker fusion model size when print

Hello
I have made a FileMaker database with 3 fields with Text.
I made fusion with the 3 fields in a model to print the text in the fields. The lenght of the text is from one page to Tree pages. Do you know a method to fit the print model to the text; so when the text printed fit only one pages, I don’t have 2 blanks pages.

If I understand correctly, you have three fields that you have combined on a layout that may be up to three pages long, and you only want it to print the actual number of pages that have text rather than the Maximum number of possible pages.

To do this you need to use FileMaker's "Sliding" options in the Inspector palette. I assume you have block of text with the fields in it as "Merge" fields, for example:

<<textfield1>>
<<textfield2>>
<<textfield3>>

or you have  single calculation field that combines the three fields:

<<myCalculationField>>

In either case, click on the field to highlight it and then set the Sliding options to "Slide Up" and "Also resize Enclosing Part".
