Geneva, Tahoma and Verdana are 3 problematic fonts i have isolated to not print correctly. I never get the last line of text to print.
These 3 fonts are installed on my pc. The height of my text area is not set, it grows with the amount of html text and this has worked very well. Always showing all text on screen but these 3 fonts never want to print the last line. However, for these 3 fonts if I set the height of my text control to 2 pixels larger that what it would normally grow to when the height is not set, everything prints out ok... but I can't set the height of my text controls because I don't know ahead of time how much text they will contain. At this time i plan to remove these 3 fonts from my selection list. It's odd since these are pretty common fonts. Maybe i need to embed the fonts in the app itself, probably the safest since other users may not have the same font list as I.... but that's why i was sticking with common fonts. Any other insight would be helpful.... --Scott --- In [email protected], "scott_flex" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > Well.... i have determined that it really doesn't matter what font > family or size it is.... it just won't print the last line even > though all lines appear on screen with no scroll bars. > > The html text of my mx:text object is: > <TEXTFORMAT LEADING="2"><P ALIGN="LEFT"><FONT FACE="Verdana" > SIZE="12" COLOR="#000000" LETTERSPACING="0" KERNING="0">When i try to > print this text from a mx:text control and the text wraps to more > than one line, the last line will not print.
