For examples, HP LaserJets have 300 or 600 dots per inch (other values are possible). Take a look at the Printer Demo #1 program on the Printer Projects page in my Computer Lab. (Look for "Other Projects" on the main page). This examples shows how to print text and graphics (both image and vectors) on a printer canvas. Other examples in my Computer Lab show how to draw on a canvas that can be either the display or the printer. efg _________________________________________ efg's Computer Lab: http://infomaster.net/external/efg Earl F.
