Hi Amol ,

Is it a custom font ? I have been using 2009 R2 on 8.1 w/o any issue.

Seems like you had this question back in Jan. am I right ?

I suppose right-clicking on desktop and selecting “Make Text and Other Items Larger or Smaller” doesn’t work, right?

No There is no Customized font .It is standard font ‘Helvetica’ font used in classic report.

Yes I had this question back also

Yes Manish I know that I have posted this earlier too. but till date i could not find any solution for this.

Is it a network printer or a shared printer ?

Would it be possible to connect the same printer on Windows 8 PC directly and check.

Manish,

It is shared printer

I tried with Local printer too but same problem.

Finally I found some solution

I set the devicefontname on Report to Arial and change all the contents font to Arial and it works .

Thanks for the all input.
