Printing simple

Is there a way to print simple text in Courier New? No pictures, no fancy fonts, it's all the same size, and no margins, etc. Is there a VB.NET function for this?

What do you want to print from?, a RichTextBox? There's a complete example here of printing here;

You can print in any font supported under "System.Drawing". So if Courier New is there you can print with it.

You can see available fonts using

Code:

---

        Dim MyFonts As System.Drawing.Text.InstalledFontCollection = New _
        System.Drawing.Text.InstalledFontCollection
        Dim Str As String = String.Empty
        For Each fam As FontFamily In MyFonts.Families
            Str += fam.Name & " "
        Next
        MessageBox.Show(Str)

you need to add a printdocument to your project.
in the printdocument_printpage event you use drawstring, in which you can specify your font.

try that + if you need any more help ask again

I want to print out simple text in one font. That means no RichTextBoxes.

Thanks, .paul.. I'll try that now.
