Re: Variable Width Printing on XP

Re (1):

The .NET call appears to be Graphics.MeasureString. You should be able to access it through Win32::OLE.

I can't find the corresponding system call, which could have been accessed via Win32::API.

Unfortunately you can't access the .NET methods directly via OLE without creating an intermediate class that is registered for COM interop. The Windows API that provides this information is probably found in GDI. /J\	[reply]
