You simply have to know the names of the ones available that are fixed width. The one everyone uses for safety's sake is Courier New
If you want to be polite and re-set it the way you found it:
dim strFoundFontName as string
dim sglFoundFontSize as single
with Printer
' get existing values
strFoundFontName = .FontName
sglFoundFontSize = .FontSize
' set ours
.FontName = "Courier New"
.FontSize = 10
' print our stuff here
< your printing code >
' set them back like we found them
.FontName = strFoundFontName
.FontSize = sglFoundFontSize
end with
Good luck.
