Hi all,
I finally solved my problem !
It was very strange...
In fact, I was trying to print with a High quality (1) and the printer (an HP K8900) wasn't able to manage it ! If I change the quality to 2 or higher, it works.
Thank you Ingo and Delbeke for your help.
Eddy

Hi Eddy!

I think in the security settings of your pdf-document printing seems to be not allowed?
Fit means if it's too small (eg A5) it will be larger if the printer is A4 for example.
Shrink means (eg A3) compress it to see all on A4-printing.
You're right... That's actually not clear - "Fit" should be enough ;-)

Cheers, Ingo

Thanks you Ingo and Delbeke.
Unfortunatly, I've also tried out with the code  below :
oPdf.SetupCustomPrinter sPrinterName, 1, 8 but it does nothing more : only blank pages.
Ingo, I've tried also with the printoption pagescalling set on 2, but with no effects anymore. By the way, what is the difference between fit to pagper (1)  and Shrink large pages (2) ?
Thanks in advance.
Eddy

Hi Eddy!

I'm using the code below ...

Cheers, Ingo

    QP := TiSEDQuickPDF.Create;
    try
       QP.UnlockKey('mykey');
       QP.LoadFromFile(Edit1.text);

       If QP.Encrypted > 0 Then
          QP.Unencrypt;
       pc := QP.PageCount;
       prName     := QP.GetDefaultPrinterName();
       If ( Pos(' on ',prName) > 0 ) then
          prName := System.Copy(prName,1,Pos(' on ',prName)-1);
       prOptions  := QP.PrintOptions(2, 1, Edit1.Text);
       QP.PrintDocument(prName, 1, pc, prOptions);
    finally
       QP.Free;
    end;

I've got an A3 printer and I produce A3 pdf files. I would like to print them on my printer...
When I do so, I obtain a... whtie page, with noting on !
My code is :

"
    sPrinterName = oPdf.NewCustomPrinter(sMyPrinter)

    oPdf.SetupCustomPrinter sPrinterName, 4, frmCustomImpr.iNbCopies   'Nb de copies
    oPdf.SetupCustomPrinter sPrinterName, 5, frmCustomImpr.iQuality    'Qualité
    oPdf.SetupCustomPrinter sPrinterName, 6, frmCustomImpr.iCoulor    'Couleur
    oPdf.SetupCustomPrinter sPrinterName, 7, frmCustomImpr.iRectoVerso 'Duplex
    oPdf.SetupCustomPrinter sPrinterName, 8, frmCustomImpr.iCollate    'Copies groupées ou non

    oPdf.PrintDocument sPrinterName, 1, 1, 2, oPdf.PrintOptions(1, 1, "PDF printing : mydoc.pdf")

"
Do I do something wrong ?
Thank you
Eddy
