Another possibility is to use the -translate- command to translate the .hlp file into PostScript (or pdf) and to print from there. For example:


translate /path/to/mycommand.hlp mycommand.ps

Another possibility is directly printing, as in:

print c:/ado/personal/ndbfaq.hlp, like(smcl) header(off) logo(off) fontsize(14)

This works for me, except that I can't control the font size. It prints at about 9. Perhaps someone knows how to change the font size.

As is often the case, a solution is found soon after the problem is stated. In this case,


. print c:/ado/personal/ndbfaq.hlp, like(smcl) header(off) logo(off) fontsize(18)

appears to produce an ~ 11 to 12 point font on the print out.
