Hi Vjaya,

Worldsoft Report Design

What is the tool you are using for Report design.
If you are using RLU(Or designing by using DDS), You can use FONT Keyword for mentioning the Font type at Field level.
The format of this keyword is

FONT(font-identifier | &font-identifier-field
    [(*POINTSIZE height-value | &height-value-field
    width-value | &width-value-field)])

You can find little more info and sample code using below link.

Oops.. Missed the link. Here it is..

http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/html/as400/v4r5/ic2979/info/db2/rbafpmst634.htm

If you just need to increase the size, You can use it like this.

FONT(font-identifier )

The valid values for this parameter are 0.1 through 999.9.

Hi Pradeep,

Am using RLU only and in Report format keyword, there is no format as you mentioned or the keyword FONT. And I saw CPI only which is having 10 or 15 only…
Please provide more clarification how to solve this..

Hi JayaShree,

You can find the FONT keyword under the parameters of the field.
After taking “Shift + F11″ at corresponding field, It will look like,

                           Work with Field Keywords                            

Field  . . . . . . . . :   TSTFLD02      Record format  . . . . :   RCD001     

Type options, press Enter.
  2=Specify   4=Remove                                                         

Opt     Keyword            Opt     Keyword            Opt     Keyword
        ALIAS                      DFT                        PRTQLTY
        BARCODE                    DLTEDT                     REFFLD
        BLKFOLD                    EDTCDE                     SKIPA
        CDEFNT                     EDTWRD                     SKIPB
        CHRID                      FLTFIXDEC                  SPACEA
        CHRSIZ                     FLTPCN                     SPACEB
        COLOR                      FNTCHRSET                  TEXT
        CPI                     >  FONT                       TIME
        CVTDTA                     HIGHLIGHT                  TIMFMT
        DATE                       INDTXT                     TIMSEP
        DATFMT                     MSGCON                     TRNSPY
        DATSEP                     PAGNBR                     UNDERLINE        

If you cant be able to get the same(FONT) in the attributes list, You can use the FONT keyword directly by opening the DDS source of printer file at the corresponding field.

The above case is only if you like to change the font of particular field.
if you would like to increase the font of Complete Printer file. Then you can change the FONT while compiling printer file.

                          Create Printer File (CRTPRTF)                         

 Type choices, press Enter.                                                     

 Print quality  . . . . . . . . . PRTQLTY        *STD
 Form feed  . . . . . . . . . . . FORMFEED       *DEVD
 Source drawer  . . . . . . . . . DRAWER         1
 Output bin . . . . . . . . . . . OUTBIN         *DEVD
 Font:                            FONT
   Identifier . . . . . . . . . .                *CPI
   Point size . . . . . . . . . .                                               

CRTPRTF and F10(Additional Parameters), FONT will be set to *CPI by default. You can change the Font Size based on your Requirement.
