QuickPDF Using Custom Paper Size

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello,

I have been trying to understand the SetupCustomPrinter method as it relates to custom paper size for some time now. Can someone help?

The documentation says this:
For custom paper size

0 Uses length and height to specify custom size in tenths or millimetres

For paper size:

1 to 68, DMPAPER_XXX (Win32 API DEVMODE data structure)

For paper height and width:

Size of paper in tenths of millimetres

How does it work if I DONT want to use paper size, but I want to do dimensions? I tried this:

SetupCustomPrinter(printerName, 0, 1);
SetupCustomPrinter(printerName, 2, 10000);
SetupCustomPrinter(printerName, 3, 10000);

This doesn't work, as the first call to SetupCustomPrinter return 0 indicating invalid setting values. What is the correct way to do this?

Thanks,

Vermillion
