Hi,
one of my clients needs a report with some text on it, using a fontsize of 9.5
Text is coming from an existing Word document, tehy are using now.
The report editor however, resets this size to 9. It doesn't seem to support "half point sizes", does it? |

Hi Arie,
I've seen half point sizes in the report editor, but I must qualify that by saying that it's normally something that WD has automatically set for me when my design doesn't fit the form size, i.e. it isn't something I've set manually.
I use the default font (Tahoma?), so something else to consider might be the actual font you're using? |

Hi Darren,
that seems to work. If I copy/paste the text from Word into de report editor it becomes an RTF field. Still the RTF-bar shows 9 points for the fontsize. But when I copy/paste it the reserve way, back into Word, it is 9.5 again (or still is).
Thanks. |

Hi Arie,
we would like to have something like a 9.5 pt setting too. WinDev's settings are integers while the Windows API offers reals for point sizes. There are fixed 9.5 pt fonts included with LibreOffice or OpenOffice, afaik. 9.5 pt is the size one needs to print to a dot matrix printer. And EPSON distributes a few 9.5 pt fonts on some the CDs which go together with their dot matrix printers, but one would need about 150 fonts to cover the full range of fonts possible with dot matrix printers in oder to have a decent preview. I suspect one would have to use Windows API calls in order to print 9.5 pt font sizes height and width of of a 12"-fanfold paper (80 chars / 72 lines). |
