Title: qb64 and printing
Post by: badger on October 12, 2020, 02:46:02 pm
Hello

Can qb64 use the windows print driver or does it just do the line printer mode as in qb4.5.. I would be good to do different fonts and such when printing an invoice ..

I miss the good ol' days. Printing on LPT1 with printer escape codes to change font size, line height, etc. I also used word pad .rtf formatting in some form templates I made, and then SHELLed the work out to Wordpad to print the file.

SHELL _DONTWAIT _HIDE "START wordpad /min /p myfile.txt"
