Derek, what exactly are you doing to "enter a font" (where, when, how...?) I
couldn't get these HUGE characters you are talking about. Probably not the right
manipulation, but I need more info.

Sorry but I can't help. I submitted this on behalf of someone else and I can't
find the original email/message now.
I suspect they are saying that using setFont() on the printer DC is giving them
strange results. I can't test it because I don't have a printer. May the strange
result happens when they set the default font?

I think Judith had mentioned something like that, but don't have specifics
either.
In the process of tracking this down, I corrected the PrintRichText.exw demo in
RP_callback() (no printing when requesting all pages in the print dialog box).
Also there was an issue in getPrintChoice() which had been there for a long time
I guess (PD_ALLPAGES was treated as a normal flag even though it is 0).
So I'll keep hunting. Any extra info on this font size issue welcome.

Yes I mentioned this problem. If you used the default font printing was ok. But
if you setFont(Printer.....) then the letters are large.
I was going to say run Generic.exw in the Demo folder but that exw ex.errs now.
I used the print feature from IDE and now it is working OK. I had not realised
the font issue was fixed since Chris had not mentioned any fixes except for the
keyboard problems. So maybe this problem is resolved. Other people that have
Chris last Win32lib should test as well to verify. The Generic.exw still needs to
be corrected however.
I'm using Chris last TESTING win32lib sent to me 10/4/2007.

Well, I was away from home most of today and one of the things I was going to
look at is Generic.exw. So it's the thing to do. Hopefully I get this issue right
tomorrow, if I don't have too much to care for away from computer.
