Hi All,
I have a 4D Write area for which I have defined a custom paper size and
text margins using WR Set Doc Property as in :
WR SET DOC PROPERTY ($mainarea;wr paper height;$paperHt)
WR SET DOC PROPERTY ($mainarea;wr paper width;$paperW))
WR SET DOC PROPERTY ($mainarea;wr text right margin;$Rmar)
WR SET DOC PROPERTY ($mainarea;wr text left margin;$LMar)
WR SET DOC PROPERTY ($mainarea;wr text bottom margin;$BotM)
WR SET DOC PROPERTY ($mainarea;wr text top margin;$TMar)

When I do a WR build Preview, i get a picture that has the correct paper
dimensions and correct text margins. However when I use WR SET PRINT
OPTION(..wr destination option;wr send to PDF file;...) and then WR PRINT,
the resulting pdf is the default paper setting (in my case US letter
8.5"x11") . I have tried using
SET PRINT OPTION(paper option;$paperW;$paperHt) before the WR PRINT
command, but to no avail.
Does anyone know how to accomplish this : get WR PRINT to produce a pdf
that matches the preview picture?
Also I noticed that SET PRINT OPTION(Hide printing progress option;1) does
not seem to have any effect on the WR PRINT command,

The reason that I am trying to do this is that WR build preview does not
handle some special characters (such as left single quotes or fractions)
correctly on the Mac platform. they are shown as question marks. WR Print
shows them correctly. I have 'alerted' 4D support on this.

Thank you,
Costas M.
