I'm still struggling with the printer stuff.
Say I have an A4 Page, and I want to write something right near the top of the
page
If I do:
Dim PagePosition as integer
Dim LeftMargin as integer = 100
Dim FontHeight as integer
'calculate the font height
fontHeight = Draw.TextHeight("Check the font height")
'start the page position
PagePostition = 500
Draw.Text("Some writing", leftMargin, pagePosition)
PagePosition += fontHeight
Draw.Text("Some more writing", leftMargin, pagePosition)
bla bla
Draw.end
then the text appears at about a 1.5cm margin from the top.printed as two
lines of text
But I need to get it right up to the top for this application as it is
printing on a pre-formatted printed form.
so I set this to
PagePostition = 250
and do the same thing, the top row of text does not appear on the form (ie the
printer must consider it outside of the margins.
There seems no way to set the margins on the kde popup dialog box for an a4
sheet.
Any help/idea's appreciated.
Regards
Richard
