Hi all

I am trying to calculate the width (in mm or in) of a printed string in 
a given font style and style.  The following gives me the width in 
pixels (and presumably this *only* applies to a screen device) - what I 
need is the width on the printed page

TXTWIDTH("Abracadabra","Arial",16,"BI")*FONTMETRIC(6,"Arial",16,"BI")

Any suggestions would be highly appreciated

Paul Newton
