Hi,

I'm trying to print tabular data from Revolution, and I'm having big
problems. This is due to the font used to print - I don't seem to have any
control over the font used, and therefore can't make it a font such as
Courier which would have consistent tabbing.


First question: Windows or Mac? On Windows, you need to set the global property formatForPrinting to "true." On OS X, you don't have to worry about that.

Second question: what font is being used to display this tabular data in the stack? Can you just change it to Courier or some other monospaced font? Or does it *need* to be different between the screen and the printout?

The best/safest way I've encountered to print what you really want is to have a stack designed only to be printed, lay it out the way you want (including font settings), move data from the data stack to the printing stack as appropriate, and then print the printing stack. Have you tried that?

Is there any way to set the output font? Or any other way to ensure that
tabular data lines up?


Thanks very much,

Karen
