I've run into a problem with the "Printers" unit. I have a piece of code
that was working with 0.9.20 but isn't working with 0.9.24. It seems
that when you configure a print job for landscape it doesn't take affect
until the second page. The first page still prints portrait. Here is a
snippet of code to demonstrate:
if not PrintDialog1.execute then exit;
with printer do begin
orientation:=poLandscape;
PaperSize.PaperName:='Letter'; { This should be the default }
BeginDoc;
canvas.TextOut(100, 100, 'Portrait Text')
newpage;
canvas.TextOut(100, 100, 'Landscape Text')
EndDoc;
end;
I've even tried setting the "landscape" setting in the print dialog
caused by the first line and I get exactly the same results. Is there a
fix for this?
