Re: [Flashcoders] Printing problem
Well I got one step further and did get my mc to print the length of one page of paper, but the rest of the mc is getting clipped off (not printing). It mc has content to span about 4 pages, so I'm trying to figure out that step now and/or looking for reference material/links to possible solutions on the subject. And yes this is AS2.

It mc has content to span about 4 pages, so I'm trying to figure out that step now and/or looking for reference material/links to possible solutions on the subject. Each MC you add to the printjob, is one page. You have to create sepearte MCs for each page and manage the pagination yourself. An easy way to do it is to have the content inside the MC and offset and mask it differently for each page. If it's any consolation, I'm no fan of the printing support in Flash - in any version.

[Flashcoders] Printing problem with F player 9.0.45
This is what I am talking about: http://thankyouforhelping.com/test/ All I did was simply import a BMP (png) with no effects OR filters. Added a print button with code: on (release) { printNum(0, bmovie); } and no beuno. :( Anyone have any suggestions. People are dying. Apps are breaking. Workflow is screwed.

Hi, check http://www.peachpit.com/articles/article.asp?p=31573rl=1 and specifically: *CAUTION* The print and printNum actions do not print alpha channels, bitmaps, or color effects.

Re: [Flashcoders] Printing problem with F player 9.0.45
Hey JC, Thanks :) The hard time I am having about this is that it has alway worked before 9.0.45 which came out on the 14th. It works fine with all previous versions. Too many apps to correct. Maybe I'll get lucky and MM will have this new feature that breaks my old code removed. I really appreciate the links.
