Re: Centermark pattern line font

I'm running SWX 2003 SP4 and have a question about the automatic line font

Hi,



I had the same problem - when printing the centerline font was not scaling itself; it can't be changed in 2003; SWX 2004 fixed the problem.

Thanks for the reply. I have 2004, but it had other problems that made it unusable for me, so we're sticking with 2003.
