Hi Tim, That did the trick. Dell computers recognizes only a very few character set/font combinations. I'll have to always keep that in mind because I do my DP definition work on a Gateway.
Thanks for the dime.

Ed, Check the settings in the DPSpool.ini on the Dell computer to see if they match those on the HP/Toshiba/IBM. Particularly, look at the VerifyCharSet item in the [Settings] section, as well as the CharSet item in each of the [PrinterX] sections. Also check to see if you have remapped character 196 by using a '196=' line in the PrinterX section. Finally, are you using the same font in both cases? Same operating system?

The horizontal line character shows correctly while defining the report but when it prints, it instead prints out [Ä]. The report is in DPSPOOL and it only happens when printing from a Dell computer. Printing from HP/Toshiba/IBM prints the line. Does anyone know why and how to fix? </snip> _______________________________________________ Dataperf mailing list [email protected] http://lists.dataperfect.nl/mailman/listinfo/dataperf _______________________________________________ Dataperf mailing list [email protected] http://lists.dataperfect.nl/mailman/listinfo/dataperf
