Using Printer Device Fonts (Courier 10 CPI / Draft) Instead of GDI for Faster Dot Matrix Printing

[irfanr123]

Hello,

I am currently using Stimulsoft Reports to generate and print reports through the browser. As far as I understand, Stimulsoft uses the GDI (Graphics Device Interface) approach when rendering and printing reports.

However, in my case I am working with dot matrix printers, and I would like to use printer device fonts such as:

* Courier 10 CPI
* Draft 10 CPI
* and other built-in printer fonts

The reason is that printing using these device fonts is significantly faster compared to printing through GDI rendering.

My question is:

Is there any way in Stimulsoft to design a report (MRT) that uses **printer device fonts directly**, instead of rendering everything through GDI?
Or is there any recommended approach to achieve **high-speed printing for dot matrix printers** when using Stimulsoft?

Any suggestions or best practices would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.
