Hi,

I use a TBrowser to show a simple textreport in a htmlpage. If I print this in Firefox or Chrome the fontsize is correct, but if I print this in Explorer the fontsize is much smaller. I have tried adjusting the HTML like: font-size: large instead of font-size: 20px, but it keeps being smaller in print. I also checked if Explorer has a setting to "Fit to print", but that was not acivated too. Has anyoe come across this and have you solved it?

Greetings,
Ronald

I do all reports/printing via PDF's to avoid these issues.

You can use CSS declarations to control how HTML is printed in an embedded browser control:

Just include the CSS via the HTML that is being loaded into the TBrowser control, and that should do what you want.

I Tim, I tried this and I can now get another size when printing (I never used @media before). But unfortunately there still is a big difference between Explorer en for eample Firefox. Explorer alwijs prints the font much smaller.

I hope Microsoft will soon use Chromium as they promised. I think I wil just add a checkbox to ask for a bigger font when printing.

@Walter I understand why you use .PDF, but that is a lot more work for a print.
