"What they said."  :-)

What, exactly, are you trying to accomplish?  If you want to align columns of the report while still using a proportional font, perhaps the way to go is to use a print code to set the horizontal position at the start of each column, thereby making the width of the preceding text irrelevant.

That's exactly what I need, sorry about reversing my question; I meant to say that I want to control proportional fonts as I wish.

Does each field has to have its own coordinate prefixed at the value of the field? Can you give me an example for placing the word "hello" at middle of the page using this font:  (s1p10v0s0b16602T)?

Thanks :)
