printTextSize
set the printTextSize to posInteger
printTextSize property returns or sets the value of the default text size (or point size) used by the print command. The default value is 10. When you print a report, HyperCard determines the default text size for a report item as follows:
• If the report item is the text of a card or background field, HyperCard uses the text size of the field.
• If the report item is generated from any other HyperTalk expression, HyperCard uses the value of the
printTextSize. In either case, the user can override the default size by selecting a size in the Item Info dialog box of the report item.
Examples
