>>If you need also the preview feature as well as printing right-aligned fields, just build 2 reports, one with the monospace font ( i.e Courier New ) and the other one with the font you like. Then if the user selects to Preview, run the first one, otherwise run the second one.

The "Format - Text Alignment ¡V Right" command works only for fix width fonts (e.g., Courier) but not for proportional width fonts (e.g., Arial). (The same command works perfectly in FPW2.6 reports no matter you are using fix width or proportional width fonts)
