Subject: Re: question on fonts

I am not looking for a GUI editor

I am just trying to use as much as we can to improve the appearance of the reports with the tools available

So simply changing fonts for now could be a good start

Courier is really getting old

Darryl,

Given that you want to play with AFP fonts, are you asking what sort
of GUI editor might be available for AFP DDS Printer Files?

Perhaps GUI editors comparable to ones you might use for creating HTML
formatted output; viewable in browsers?

I am creating a few reports, something I have not done in a while,
preferring to use web based tools.



My question to the group is: for those of you who are creating
reports, how have you modernized the reports using what is available
in the DDS for the PRTF's.



I want to get the look and feel use more modern and need to play with
the fonts but have not found a good reference to what font's look
line and which to use for size etc.



I have created the reports using *AFPDS formats and am trying to play
with the fonts.



Thanks.
