Changing font while printing

Former Member — Fri, 28 Jul 2006 06:50:26 GMT

Hi all,

I m developing report for Customer Ledger.

When i print that report it is printing in very small font.

I want to increase the font size so that it could be easily readable.

I used PRINT-CONTROL 'SABLD' LINE 1.

for bold font .

But it is not working .

If any one has gone through such scenario then let me know.

Thanx in advance.

Regards.

Hello Umesh,

you cannot increase the font size in a report using write statemens.

To increase the font you have to go for sap scripts or smart forms.

Reward if helps.

Thanks,

Hello,

If you are doing print on the dotmatrix printer, then printer must be able to handle the printing.

Like your report size is 255 column and if you try to print on 132 column stationery it will come in the small fonts..

Same is applicable to Laser pritner.

it is not possible to change the font type. but size it depends on your line-zise.

<b>report zreport line-size 100</b>.

if you show only 100 width then font will be bigger. if you increase the width to 200 then font will be small.

Using ALV reporting we can handle fonts sizes i suppose..

but not with classical reporting..
