>However, the Report Writer at the moment is only Previewing in more than 100% in Design Mode and not in Runtime. It can preview to 250% at the moment. I can go higher but I have to scale back some fonts if they break 72 points because of VFP limitations. Eventually though I hope to rewrite the engine. But, don't look for that for a while. I think that would be a HUGE undertaking. But it would definitely help us VFPers who have suffered from the Report Writer's lack of enhancements.
