Using dot matrix resident fonts in report?

[xray7]

How do you specify your report to use Dot Matrix resident fonts? I'm printing to an Okidata 321 and need it to print in an HSD Courier resident font. I've tried just manually entering "Courier" in the font selection box but still get the TT font.

Thanks,
Robert

Usually the Font dropdown box displays little icons to the left of the font name. Make sure your default printer is the Oki and find fonts that don't have the TT icon.

That would work EXCEPT Access doesn't list the printer's fonts. The only "non True Type" it lists are "Roman, Script, & Modern" which are NOT the printer's resident fonts. (These fonts are just generic fonts).

The printer's fonts appear in Excel, Word, etc but not in Access....Hmmm
