printing! why the font so small use another printer?
doc/view,
I print some text information,
default mode(MM_TEXT);
I set the fonts is:
memset(&lf,0,sizeof LOGFONT);
lf.lfHeight = -16;
lf.lfWeight = FW_NORMAL;
strcpy(lf.lfFaceName,"Arial");
m_BodyFont.CreateFontIndirect(&lf);
it can print the text what I want!
but when use another printer print the text ,it print so small!
I want to print the same font in the page regardless printer!
how I do ?
thanks!

Make sure driver settings are correct. Otherwise, if you know a deal of serial programming you should be able to send commands to the printer yourself.

I mean the printers are different type!

Hi,
I believe it may be a problem with the lfHeight member of the LOGFONT struct. The MSDN documentation gives this equation when using MM_TEXT mode.
lfHeight = -MulDiv(PointSize, GetDeviceCaps(hDC, LOGPIXELSY), 72);
However, I have never been able to get good results with that equation. I have been able to get the proper result by simply multiplying the desired height by 10. So, if you want a height of 16 try specifying 160 for the lfHeight member. At least that is what worked for me.
