I'm trying to use Graphics to print. I need some of the text to be bold and larger font, and other to be smaller font and not bold. Could someone take a look at this? This is printing, but I do receive an error and only the large font bold prints (g, not g2) dim g, g2 as Graphics g = OpenPrinter() g2 = OpenPrinter() g.Bold = True g.TextSize = 18 g2.TextSize = 11 g.DrawString "Registration Code", 90, 72 g.DrawString listbox3.Cell(0, 0), 118, 108 g2.DrawString "This code is to be used as your Login & Password when", 36, 144 g2.DrawString "registering. They are the same and are case sensitive.", 40, 162 g.DrawString "Registration Code", 396, 72 g.DrawString listbox3.Cell(1, 0), 424, 108 g2.DrawString "This code is to be used as your Login & Password when", 324, 144 g2.DrawString "registering. They are the same and are case sensitive.", 328, 162 Last edited by rhartz on Mon May 07, 2012 9:04 pm, edited 1 time in total.

What happens if you do it sequentially? Meaning you do all of g and then g2? _________________ Bob K. 30+ hours of Real Studio Video Training (including over 6 hours of Web Edition) at http://www.bkeeney.com/ Real Studio Consulting http://www.bkeeney.com/consulting/real-studio-consulting BKeeney Briefs Blog For Real Studio Developers http://www.bkeeneybriefs.com/ Top JeremK Post subject: Re: Printing helpPosted: Mon May 07, 2012 6:29 pm Joined: Thu Apr 10, 2008 6:03 am Posts: 255 Location: Paris-La Défense, France I don't think using Openprinter twice is going to work properly. You should use this code instead: dim g as Graphics g = OpenPrinter() g.Bold = True g.TextSize = 18 g.DrawString "Registration Code", 90, 72 g.DrawString listbox3.Cell(0, 0), 118, 108 g.bold = False g.textSize = 11 g.DrawString "This code is to be used as your Login & Password when", 36, 144 g.DrawString "registering. They are the same and are case sensitive.", 40, 162 g.Bold = True g.TextSize = 18 g.DrawString "Registration Code", 396, 72 g.DrawString listbox3.Cell(1, 0), 424, 108 g.bold = False g.textSize = 11 g.DrawString "This code is to be used as your Login & Password when", 324, 144 g.DrawString "registering.

Thanks for your help! I was under the assumption that the font could be defined only once (and why I had a g and a g2), but as you pointed out it may be changed each time needed. Thanks!
