Print Dialog and Microsoft Fax

[docu-track99]

Hello,

We have an issue with one of our clients you may be able to help us with. In our software we launch the print dialog of the control, however the options are different then when the print dialog is opened in your editor (specifically the 'No Scaling' option). When the user chooses to print to the Microsoft Fax Driver if they don't set scaling type to 'no scaling' and turn off 'auto-rotate sheets' then some of the pages end up missing. The problem is that when they are not printing to the fax they want these options set the other way. Is there any way for us to programatically set the options including the output device for them if we asked them what the output device would be before launching the dialog?

Thanks.

Hello docu-track99

You could control pretty much any of the options in the Viewer's print dialogue as explained in the Manual in section:
2.2.2.14 Print
Though the user could also change those once the dialogue opens - so you will either need to catch when they click the final "print" button - and change those values based on the selected printer before actually sending the file for printing, or create your own printing dialogue where you will have full control over what options to display to them based on the printer they select.

Best,
Stefan
