I'm building an Aware program that inputs user's text responses into a form. The form contains text that is formatted (the formatting is actually very simple - mostly just a bolded and multiple-sized font). I would like the user to be able to print out the form, with their inputted text in the correct locations on the form, and not lose any of the form's formatting. The only way I can do this now is by writing the user's text to an Ascii text file - which cannot be formatted. Is it a better solution for me to build the form in Authorware's display window, and then allow the user to print the displayed screen, after they enter their text? I've looked through a lot of Authorware resources on the web and I am still unable to find any information on this. Can somebody please let me know if this is even possible, and how I can get started in building in this functionality. Thanks, any help is appreciated. --Brian Goldstein University of Washington
