Kevin, now that you're asking questions like this, perhaps the demos I've provided for PrintWizard would be of value:
nospamNebula-RnD.com/products/PW/demo2.htm (Nebula R&D does not sell or support PrintWizard) That's BASIC code to provide text positioning, styles, justfication, images, barcodes, rotation, boxes, colors, lines, PDF, FAX, Email, and lots of other cool features. It's much more readable than PCL and the product support is outstanding.
