I don't know. lpr-command is probably either "lp" or "lpr", and I don't understand how to use the options to those commands that might affect the font (-S character_set and -1 font, respectively). I think if you edit the file in that particular face with `M-x set-default-font RET 6x13bold RET' and then print it with `M-x ps-print-buffer-with-faces RET', you'll get what you want. -- Kevin Rodgers
