Detecting the printer page size

[Marco Turco]

Hi all,
I know that in order to detect the printer page size I can use oPrn:GetphySize() but is there a function to have directly the page format (example A4, A5, A3....) ?

Thanks

hello Mr.Marco,

I think no there is a native function for this, but see the function PrnGetPaper()...

I hope that helps you...

Code: Select all

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Function Test()

oPrinter = PrintBegin('Test',.T.,.T.,,.T.)

msginfo( PrnGetPaper(oPrinter)[1] ) // string with constant name of printer class
msginfo( PrnGetPaper(oPrinter)[2] ) // number of parameter for PrnSetPage function
msginfo( PrnGetPaper(oPrinter)[3] ) // string with name of paper

RETURN
//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

//------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
*
* PrnGetPaper
* Returns the array of information about paper of printer select
