Hello Harvie! If your printer use PCL language, its easy to format your report. variable bold char(15) variable normal char(15) let bold = ASSCII (027),"(s3B" let normal = ASSCII (027),"(s0B" print bold clipped, <What you like to print>, normal clipped For complete PCL code check the manual of your printer. My example is use for LaserJet IIID. Take care.
