Hi,

I think what you are trying to do here is set what font you want to use when printing from VB, if so here is how you do it.


Printer.FontName = "Times New Roman"
Printer.FontSize = 10
Printer.PrintQuality = 1


I'm not sure how the .PrintQuality property works, I don't know if 1 is poor quality and 5 is good quality, that is something for you to play around with.

Hope it helps.

Shady

As I understood, he was reffering on the Draft font that comes with some printers. With this font, u can prin files much faster, like in MS-DOS. Usually, u get this font when u install driver for the printer that supports draft font (many EPSON printers) - Draft 10cpi & Draft 12cpi. In Windows XP driver aditional fonts were added - 5cpi, 6cpi, 15cpi and 17cpi.

I dont think that this font files can be found separately.
