retry -- I substituted [] for the angle brackets because of HTML format.

Huh? This is a receipt printer. It accepts whatever VFP will send to it. Are you suggesting something like:

set textmerge on
\ [[chr(27)+....]]ACME School for Widget Makers
scan
\ [[chr(##)+....]]table.field
endscan
set textmerge off
\

What escape codes would you use to specify *Courier New*?
