Dear NG,

When creating a enhanced meta file the resolution is set to the resolution
of the device context.
Now, I have two ways to influence the resolution: Choosing a dc compatible
to the display which meens 96 DPI or choosing a dc compatible to a printer.
I need a printer compatible meta file, so it would be ok if there wheren't
some users who have no printer!

How can I create a dc and set its resolution?
Or is there a way to influence the resolution after creating a meta file?

Thanks for help

Martin
