Font problem in report writer

[FoxIPO]

Hi,

I am having a problem with a font not displaying correctly in the report writer, specifically in a textbox. It displays ok on a form textbox and it also displays ok in a label in report writer, just not in the textbox in the report. It will even display in the style tab sample box in the report writer, just not in preview or on printed paper.

I have tried this in VFP9(SP2) (reportbehavior 80 and 90) and VFP6 with the same results.

Has anyone else had a problem like this before?

Also displays fine in other Microsoft Office products eg. Word.

In what way is the font incorrect? For example, were you expecting a proportional font but got a fixed-pitch font? Or are you seeing a similar font to the one you were expecting?

The reason I ask is that you might possibly be using a printer driver that doesn't support the font in question. It might be a "text only" driver, in which case you'll only see printer-resident fonts. It might be woth trying to print the report to a different printer just to see what effect that has.

Ok, I guess something was wrong with my report. I created a brand new report from scratch and it works now.
