On XP I'm trying to print a card that contains a background image and
some fields. So far, no joy. Here is my approach. What am I missing?
* using Rev 3.0 gm-3
* running XP Pro SP3
* I just updated my printer drivers
* when run on Mac OS X, it works perfectly: landscape card image
prints with landscape orientation on paper
* when run on XP, a landscape card image prints with portrait
orientation, with topLeft of landscape card image = topLeft of paper
* it works the same with and without the image object present on the
card
* it works the same whether I use referenced or embedded image content
The script:
on mouseUp
-- locate the cert stack
answer file "Pick the Certificate stack:"
if it = empty then exit to top
put it into tCertStack
-- go to cert stack
push this cd
go inv stack tCertStack -- cert stack is 792w x 612h
-- prep for printing
set the loc of img 1 to the loc of this cd
put the topLeft of this cd into tTopLeft
put the bottomRight of this cd into tBottomRight
reset printing -- to prevent crash on XP when using 'open printing'
approach
set the printPaperOrientation to "landscape"
put "792,612" into tPaperSize -- 11"w x 8.5"h
put the printPaperRectangle into tPaperRect
-- print
open printing
print this card from tTopLeft to tBottomRight into tPaperRect
close printing
-- restore focus to original stack
close stack tCertStack
pop cd
end mouseUp
