Now, we're talking! Unfortunately, you can only specify the paper size in PDF, not the printer driver and settings to use. PDF means "Portable document format". The PDF would not be portable anymore if you'd include printer-specific commands in the file. So FOP can't help you here.
But I have a suggestion: On the machine where you print these labels install a new printer driver (the same as the existing, using the same target port). Give it a new name such as "Label Printer" and set the default printer settings to "DL" and whatever you need. This way, the only thing that needs to be done to print the PDF right is to choose the right printer in the print dialog. Not an ideal solution but a lot better than changing the settings every time. I hope that helps. On 26.05.2003 11:25:54 Scherler, Thorsten wrote: > I like to print out labels to put them on parcels. This labels have the > size of DL envelopes.
