Visual Studio Tip / Trick #028 English Transcription:

Today’s Visual Studio Trick of the Day, trick no. 28 was originally published in September 2007 by Sara Ford. Today’s trick is boldly printing where no dev has ever printed before. It’s changing the way your source code prints. We look at the tools menu, and then jump down to Options, looking at the Environment and then fonts and colors. You can see there’s a Show settings for bar, and by default it’s going to say the Text Editor but if you change this to Printer, you’ll then to able to change the fonts, the colors and the size that things that actually get printed. Now if you’ve already setup your desktop a specific way, you can also use the Use button here, which will reset your defaults and use the original font’s settings that you’ve already setup for your Text Editor. That way it’s kinda like the, what you see is what you get. So with the colors and the fonts, the bold and the sizing, that’s what you actually print when you print out your source code.
