How do I tell Crystal to use windows fonts
Tejonath,
I don't know much about NT but Crystal doesn't have it's own fonts.
It will use the fonts available to whatever printer you are using when
you design the report. You are probably running into problems with
the print driver, or you are writing the report for one printer and
running it on another printer, one that handles the font differently.
Crystal is very sensitve to Print Drivers. Go to their website and
download their documents on Printer Driver Dependency. They are very
helpful.
