>>Using the foxpro 3.0 report writer in windows 3.1 I have configured a report to print in DRAFT mode. The printer is an Okidata 393.
>>However, the reports actually print in LETTER QUALITY MODE. When i use other windows programs like NOTEPAD to print stuff the printer always goes into the correct mode. Is the report sending the wrong "signals" to the printer.
>>How do i get the report to print in DRAFT MODE as i configured it?
>>Will i need to use a third party report writer like Crystal Reports?

The Font used throughout the report is a truetype font.
I saw a font called Lineprinter which is not a truetype font.
I'll try playing with different font styles.
I am printing on a "dot matrix"/"line printer" and i want printing to go as fast as possible.
Do you recommend the lineprinter font?
It is a printer font.
Thanks
