how to print an image (in a picture box) in a report with a font in concrete? I need this because i have a epson tm88III and it uses his own
fonts.

eromein

Could you explain this a bit more detailed?

My question is if i can print an image in a report with a font in concrete. When you put a textbox y a report in the section you can put a font in concrete. The same as this but with an image.

Thanks a lot

And you tested to set Courier font with size 10? I supose that this combination may pass character into printer without representing them as graphics. This may be the trick... (I know, that given topic is about something else, but have same solution - let pass chars as chars) 8)

The problem is where can i put this font and size, because i put the image like a picture box in the section of the report, and it doesn't have those properties.

I still don't understand what do you want to print - text or picture?

if text - why are you using picture
if image - why do you want change font (or what it have with printer font)

???

Hi eromein,

i have a report that it is a ticket and i have to put the logo of the company which is an image.

The problem is that i have a tm printer (small printer) and i have to put the fonts that the printer carry with the driver because otherwise it prints so slowly.

Understand?

But if you want print image on your printer, there are no fonts used. It will print through windows driver = slow printing... it's my opinion... 8)

There is not way how font can affect printing of image... or it is some special printer with special driver which behave differently than standard printers.
