Hi all,

My printer can print both A4 and A3, the defualt is A4. How can I select to print on A3 paper I am guessing I need to use a custom printer something like:

MyPrinter := QP.NewCustomPrinter(QP.GetDefaultPrinterName());

// NOT SURE WHAT TO DO HERE
QP.SetupCustomPrinter(MyPrinter,1,????);

// NOT SURE WHAT TO DO HERE

QP.PrintDocument(MyPrinter, 1, MyPageCount, MyOptions);

Has anyone done this before who could help out.

Many thanks in advance.

Mac

Thought others might like to know that I found the answer in windows.pas.

DMPAPER_A3 = 8; // A3 297 x 420 mm
DMPAPER_A4 = 9; // A4 210 x 297 mm

QP.SetupCustomPrinter(MyPrinter,1,8);

Thanks
