printing from vb6 in windows 2000

[vosje]

i created a program in vb6 wich is printing several page's, now the program works fine under w95,w98,nt but under w2000 there seems to be a problem with the fonts.
it print like this

shut be:
i wil use windows 2000

it prints:
o#eow#raq#eojhlea#5333

This is not a actual translation but i hope you understand what i meen.

Can you please show the code that you are using to print. It's also a possibility that you are trying to print a font that your win2k machine does not have. (check that) and if that doesn't solve it, then maybe if we look at the code we can see what's happening.

It seems to put every ASCII character three places ahead.
Every letter is three letters ahead than it should be (not in your example. But you said it's not an actual translation), every digit in 2000 is 3 digits ahead, and instead of spaces - Chr(32) - there are pound # marks - Chr(35).

Don't know why or how to fix - just a speculation!

Try telling it to print this, see if it prints right:

"Qefp" & Chr(29) & "tlohp" & Chr(30)

If I'm correct it would print:

This works!

I'm printing in two way's, using the printer object
like:
printer.print "hello i'm"

and i use the rtf box for printing rtf formatted text

in both instances it prints the same way
the font i'm using is arial that shut be there do'nt you think?

omg now that's what i call a guru, now that you mention it Yonatan it seems that you are right. I wonder why it's doing that...

I thank you both for so far i got to leave now(dentist)
when i'm back at my work i wil try to find out if it's trhu what Yonatan say's.

Thanx!!!!
