I am looking for someone who knows how to update the DMFONTS.LST file. I am finding that most of my reports print off of the page. I'd like to default all of my printers to using "Lucida Console". According to the limited documentation I've found. If I create DMFONTS.LST in the root directory (I'm assuming //Networkdrive/MacolaDirectory/DMFONTS.LST). If anyone could tell me how or if this works, that would be great. I'm using Macola version 7.5.103f. The contents of the file I used are:

1
"HPLJ2200" "Lucida"
 
You should be able to update this with notepad or wordpad, but I do not know what to do to this file to solve the issues you are talking about. Software Sales, Training and Support for Macola, Crystal Reports and Goldmine

I've tried saving it with Notepad. I've found the documentation to do this under printing tips/Font Selection For Dot-Matrix Printers. Perhaps I am looking in the wrong place to solve my problem. I need a way to tell macola how to fit reports onto a page because the font (Courier New) it selects is too wide. If I select one of the other fonts (Ie Lucida Console) it works fine. Any idea how to make Macola automatically fit the page?
