One produces an intermittent A/V in the imfnt5.dll. I did a bit of research and it appears that Delphi apps with a certain HP driver sometimes combine to produce this error. Tracing the error, it occurs on a line of code that simply sets the font size to a different value. What's even stranger, that particular HP printer has nothing to do with the current print job. Has anyone else seen this error or have any insightful comments? Loren Back to top Martin E. Barreda Guest Posted: Thu Mar 29, 2007 8:12 am    Post subject: Re: A/V in imfnt5.dll when printing I am getting the same exception... with only this portion of code. try f := TFont.Create; f.Assign(Printer.Canvas.Font); TextHeight := 0; for i := 0 to High(Items) do begin Printer.Canvas.Font.Name := Items[i].FName; Printer.Canvas.Font.Size := Items[i].FSize; Printer.Canvas.Font.Style := Items[i].FStyle; if Printer.Canvas.TextHeight('X') > TextHeight then TextHeight := Printer.Canvas.TextHeight('X'); end; //DoSomePrint; Printer.Canvas.Font.Assign(f); f.Free; except Abort; end; The exception arise formerly when i restore font's property.. (Printer.Canvas.Font.Assign(f))... well, i try to comment the line of code and then get the exception it another line... It happens to me with a HP1018 laserjet printer... but if i install the printer with HP1020 drivers, it seems not to reach the exception. For some reason that i don't remember, i get back to HP1018 drivers (perhaps i think i get a new one, with a solution from HP), but the program gets the same error. I'll probably rollback my last rollback (uhh?)... reinstalling HP1020 drivers. Keep in touch and i will tell you the result. If you find another solution, please, tell me!! Thanks and luck!!

You're right -- you comment out the offending line, and you just get a violation on some other line. It's the most frustrating kind of bug to have. Loren Back to top Martin E. Barreda Guest Posted: Fri Mar 30, 2007 5:49 am    Post subject: Re: A/V in imfnt5.dll when printing Got it!!! In printing preferences... i check economode, and A4 as default paper... In default preferences... as in printing preferences and set FastRes and Economode... I will not touch anything but i think that only with Economode set we got the solution. It seems to work!! but the time will tell. The error did not happen again till now in places that occurs... Good luck!!!
