Hi

Is it possible to obtain the correct width of a string when printing. I have
tried with
different calculations and different settings, but I can't get it to work.
Below is a program
that tries to print two strings after each other. Depending on what font I
use the result
is disappointing. It prints 4 pages, and it is slow because it uses a lot of
fonts.

When I print with this program the "Serif" font and "Times New Roman" font
are not
printed the same. I thought that Serif was translated into Times Now Roman
on windows.

Can anyone tell me whats wrong?
Regards
