Problem:

Would like to know how to do old DOS Landscape Print reports in Net Express ?

When converting a system that prints 132 character width and 66 lines to a page how can you get this working using Windows.

Resolution:

You can use the printer redirection runtime tunable to redirect print to the Windows Print spooler.

You can also then use the PC_PRINTER routines to switch into Landscape mode and use a suitable monospaced font.

An example of this approach is attached.
