PrinterFont$
PrinterFont$ = fontSpec
 
Description:
Liberty BASIC 4 now lets you set the font used for LPRINTing text to the printer.  The format used for specifying the font is the same as for specifying the font in a graphics window. See also How to Specify Fonts, LPRINT.
 
    'set a courier 10 italic font
    PrinterFont$ = "courier_new 10 italic"
 
The last font set before a page is printed is used for all the text on that page.
 
Usage:
 
    'show the current printer font$
    print PrinterFont$
    lprint "This text will appear in "; PrinterFont$
    dump
 
    'set a courier 10 italic font
    PrinterFont$ = "courier_new 10 italic"
    lprint "This text will appear in "; PrinterFont$
    dump
