Okay, I've committed that. > > I'm also wondering if the fonts used and the sizes should be user > selectable.

And maybe > different point sizes? It seems to me that the best way would be to translate OS/400's output to a corresponding font. So, you can create a document on the iSeries, get everything working there and send it to your PC to make a PDF. It seems unlikely that someone would want to change their PC config individually for every document that they want different features on. > And what sizes are valid on the iSeries for CPI? 1 to infinity? 10, 12, > 16? When I type '?OVRPRTF' on my iseries, it tells me that the possible values for CPI are 5, 10, 12, 13.3, 15, 16.7, 18 and 20. James, have you given any thought to how all your new printer code will integrate with the Windows lp5250d? Or have you thought about porting it to the 0.16.x branch, so that it'll make it into the next release? Or was the plan to get it stable in the 0.17.x branch, and then port it after it's stable? _______________________________________________ This is the Linux 5250 Development Project (LINUX5250) mailing list To post a message email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To subscribe, unsubscribe, or change list options, visit: http://lists.midrange.com/cgi-bin/listinfo/linux5250 or email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Before posting, please take a moment to review the archives at http://archive.midrange.com/linux5250.
