Hi all -

I have a pdf that I'm printing on a dot matrix printer.  In my pdf, I've specified that it should print using the Courier font.  When I look at the pdf in Adobe Reader, it's in courier and when I print the document directly from Adobe Reader it prints in courier.  However, when I print the same document using cfprint it prints using a san serif font.

Any idea how I might get cfprint to acknowledge the courier font?

How did you set the font to be courier in the first place? As far as cfprint is concerned, there seems to no setting for fonts. Could the dot matrix be just too old?

I wondered whether increasing the quality of the print job might help. I thought of something like

<cfset printJobProperty=StructNew()>

<cfset printJobProperty["quality"] = "high">

<cfprint type="pdf" attributeStruct="#printJobProperty#" source=... etc>
