I cannot change the size, because the label pieces are pretty tight as is. I did find a way around it - sort of. I accessed the printer from my computer desktop, selected properties and then fonts. I then chose to download fonts and selected Arial Bold. It was assigned an ID of S50. So for the pt name, I used this as the value of a custom field in my label report: . This prints the pt name in Arial Bold at a size of 30 dots. Works good. Problem with this approach is that the position is hard-coded in the string - 0022 0382 as the row and column. I do not know how to use this approach with a field further down the label since the line can change based on multiples above it. Anybody know how to use the field's position as a variable? What field or / variable is the position stored in? I know the data gets sent to /V[#] in the report before it's printed, but I have no idea how to pull the row data as a variable. Thanks for any help. Roger
