Hello

   Is there anyway to change the printer font larger? not the headers that you usually can control in the actual printer functions but the data being taken from the database. The actual spot is in the event module, when I print using the little printer icon in the lower left the actual print type is so small i would guess 6 or 7 px. I need to post the printed page on our bulletin board at work but you cant read it unless your right on top of it.

Any help would be so great

In theory the styles used should be the same ones used when displayed via the calendar directly - the print view is DNN core functionality and I think just places the module into it's own page to remove all the other clutter for printing.

If the size is wrong, then you need to review the styles your are applying to your site. The use of FireBug in FireFox, or the IE Developer Tools in IE8 (press F12) should allow you to identify what styles are being applied to your content.

Cheers
Roger

Once you find which style sheet and which style selectors are controlling the font size, you should be able to make good use of the CSS @media rule to specify a font-size for printing different from the size on screen:
