how to compress text in report text field

[dev kamal]

For example, when length of an item's name is big enough, it is not shown completely in invoice printing of the access. what is code to compress/reduce font size in that particular cell of the invice printing. kindly suggest.

I find it quite extraordinary, at this stage of the game, that there isn't an O/S routine that can accurately return how wide (and even how high) is the space taken up by specified text using specified font(s). Unfortunately that isn't provided so we have to use the excellent work that Stevan Lebans has contributed (See Phil's links).
