Conversion of reports

I have tried using the RRW Version 9 runtime to read reports that have been stored in an .RP1 file at different locations with different printers. The reports seem fine on my computer but not on others. I assume this has to do with some kind of default font setting. ____Is there some way of settting this setting on various computers so that the reports all look the same?____

Here is how things work:____The file RRWFIF.INI (which is installed in the R&R program directory) controls the translation of fonts from DOS to Windows.____For reports that do not have an attached .FIF file, the first section of RRWFIF.INI controls fonts selection.____[None]__10=Courier-LD,Courier New,Courier__12=Courier-LD,Courier New,LinePrinter,Courier__Compressed=Courier-LD,LinePrinter,Courier New,Courier__CompPitch=17____So for reports with no FIF that are saved using 10 pitch, the first font in the list Courier-LD,Courier New,Courier will be used.____For reports with a FIF, the matching section of the RRWFIF.INI to the saved FIF name will be applied.____Kathleen__R&R Support____
