>Some of the reports in my application (a VFP 5.0 distribution .EXE) print in a very reduced font in the upper left corner of the paper, from Win95. Not all of the reports do this. The print preview function displays the reports fine on-screen. This problen happens on two different computers (running Win95), with three different printers (HP LJ Series II, HP LJ IIIP, and Cannon BJ200ex). No error messages display, printing completes as normal, we just get the reduced printing. This can kill my business! Any help would be greatly appreciated.

What have U tried?
1.) Run reports interactively from within VFP command window. This will allow U to see if anything within your APP is changing a printer string.
2.) Isolate one of the objects that is printing in an incorrect font. Really check it out. Look it over top, bottom, left, right. Become familar with the FRX database structure and look at the settings within this table. Compare those settings with an object that prints correctly.
3.) Try to create a new object to replace the object that is not printing correctly.
4.) I assume U are not using any API calls to change any printer settings.
5.) Is problem specific to VFP 5.0? Does the problem occur in VFP 3.0b?
Well that is all I can think of for now, lunch hour goes quick when U have alot to do... Htwh... Steve...
