Hi
I have a report for which I have set the Epson LQ-1050 (dot matrix) as the
default printer. The problem is that I still can't see the printer's native
(hardware) fonts in the font selection drop down in report designer?
Thanks
Regards

Does Epson provide a specific driver for that printer for your version of
Windows? There are some significant differences at low levels in how dot
matrix and laser/inkjet printers work. This is a hardware, driver software,
and Windows problem... not a Report or Access problem. I had "issues" with
dot-matrix from the very beginning of my use of Windows with Win 3.0 (but
have not used a dot-matrix with Windows in many years).

Thanks for this but there is no check mark there.

I found out that VB.Net supports only TrueType and
OpenType fonts, in other words, it doesn't load printer
fonts (device fonts) that are associated with a printer.
I'm writing an application that will print to a POS
printer and I would like to use its printer fonts for
barcode printing. Is there a way I could load those
printer/device fonts in my code?

We currently are trying our first transformation from VB6 to VB.Net. Of
course, the Printer object is gone, but I'm having trouble finding the
replacement syntax necessary to perform similar actions or set variables.
We are interested in doing this inline (no pop-up dialog box).
Specifically, where how would I replace the following properties/methods of
the old Printer objects.
Printer.NewPage
Printer.TextHeight
Printer.TextWidth

I'm developing an app where the print output will be on a dot-matrix
printer. I suppose the printers will either be an Epson or Okidata, not
really sure at this point.
I, unfortunately, do not have a dot matrix anymore. Can I design my
reports using TrueType fonts? Should I only use Courrier fonts? And
if so, is there a recommended point size? Will page ejects work OK?
Any other caveats?
Thanks

Whenever I try to use a Font that is specific to the printer I am using, the
Font call returns a font that is loaded into windows instead. Here is an
example in C#.
.....Load printer information....
Font font = new Font("FontA1x1", 9.5F); //FontA1x1 is built into the
printer
After the call, the font variable equals Arial.

Also, what other way to detect if a printer is color printer.

Hi
I did a report a while ago set to Epson LQ-1050 and using the hardware fonts
to speed up printing. Recently I had to make some changes to report but the
problem is that the hardware printer fonts do not display in the fonts drop
down in report designer even though I select the Epson LQ-1050 printer. What
is the problem and how can I fix it?
Thanks

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
