I am writing a report generator that can either print to paper or generate a PDF. The QuickPDFGetTextHeight returns .167 inches for the height of a 9 point font. For the printer the height is returned as .143 inches with "GetTextMetrics". This results in a printed report being significantly different than its PDF counterpart?

Any ideas why the text heights would be so different?
