hi, i need to modify the size of the fonts in baan reports, but in unix, 'cause, in baan, i have configurated 3 types or font size, 10 for big, 12 for medium, 17 for small.

and, i have 1 report that has 17 for the size, and users complain cause the think its too small. but if i change it to 12, the font is too big and exceed the margen of the document, so.. my question would be, what can i do about it? in windows is the same thing, if i change the font size... where can i found the bwprint.exe. could it help?

Hello,

on UNIX you can modify your printerdriver in $BSE/lib/printinf/..... or
built a new driver assigned to the BaaN printer.

Define fonts like .


pfont1=\E(s0p20h0s0b4102T,
pfont2=\E(s0p16.67h0s0b4102T,
pfont3=\E(s0p15h0s0b4102T,
pfont4=\E(s0p14h0s0b4102T,
pfont5=\E(s0p10h0s0b4102T,
pfont6=\E(s0p9h0s0b4102T,
pfont7=\E(s0p8h0s0b4102T,
pfont8=\E(s0p5h0s0b4102T,
pfont9=\E(s0p20h0s3b4102T,
pfont10=\E(s0p16.67h0s3b4102T,
pfont11=\E(s0p15h0s3b4102T,
pfont12=\E(s0p14h0s3b4102T,
pfont13=\E(s0p10h0s3b4102T,
pfont14=\E(s0p9h0s3b4102T,
pfont15=\E(s0p8h0s3b4102T,
pfont16=\E(s0p5h0s3b4102T,

In BaaN report you can assign a field to one of this user defined fonts.

Here's something that I learned from L. Bencic concerning bwprint ...

If you print to a Windows Printer and do a Preview, a user can customize User Specific Settings such as Fonts and Font Spacing by right-clicking in the bwprint window.

In the future, whenever the user prints that report, it will use the customized bwprint settings.
