Hi all

In my application i am printing values from a notepad to paper.
I gave font style and size in the notepad(Lucida Console,reguler,8), it is running fine in winXP or win7, but i tried the same application in winPOSReady2009, that time the font became very big.

Please tell me some solution where the font should remain same for any OS.

Thank you

No one can possibly guess what your program is doing. Please show the failing code and explain how you set the font for the output.

Have a look at the DPI-Settings of that systems. Most likely thats your problem.

"printing values from a notepad" what's that? Do you use the "print" menu of Notepad?
