printMG

[Richard 0]

In the following code snippet the line: _PrintSetFont($hp,'Arial',18,0,'bold,underline')

sets the font. The 0 = black.

When trying other colors(1,2 ....) the result stays black; Why?

Is there a list of available colors?

try using "0xFF0000" instead of "0", I think it wants it in RGB form. I haven't tested though :|

Differences in color of only 1 or 2 in any single field ( R, G, or B ) are going to be very small and hard to detect with the naked eye. So it's not surprising that 0, 1, and 2 all look like the same black. Try larger differences to see the results.

Correct.
