Many thanks to Dave Smith. The solution he suggested works like a charm. 
In fact, the customer likes the new font much better than the previous 
one.

There's a "shrink to fit" option in that configuration somewhere. No 
matter what you do to the point size it'll be too small. You can either 
turn off the shrink to fit, or make sure the file is set to print 8.5 wide 

and not 132 columns.

Printer Fonts






There's a bunch of stuff in the archives, but I can't seem to come up with 


the answer. A client has an HP4000 that was printing just fine until last 
week. Somehow, they managed to blow away the device description. The 
default font size when reconfiguring it is 11, and I've tried that. Now 
I'm up to 101, and the user is still complaining that the print is too 
small. The sent me a faxes showing something printed last week and today. 
The sample from last week shows characters that appear to be about 50% 
bigger than today's sample. Is this a function of the point size? What 
would the settings have to be to compare to a font of Times Roman 12?

Thanks.
