Re: printing with php

Here it is in English. You will find it in the PHP manual. To get a copy of the help go to http://weblabor.hu/php-doc-chm/ Dave Anagram systems http://www.anagram-sys.co.uk/ printer_set_option Configure the printer connection () bool printer_set_option ( resource handle, int option, mixed value ) The function sets the following options for the current connection. handle must be a valid handle to a printer. For option can be one of the following constants: PRINTER_COPIES: sets how many copies should be printed, value must be an integer. PRINTER_MODE: specifies the type of data (text, raw or emf), value must be a string. PRINTER_TITLE: specifies the name of the document, value must be a string. PRINTER_ORIENTATION: specifies the orientation of the paper, value can be either PRINTER_ORIENTATION_PORTRAIT or PRINTER_ORIENTATION_LANDSCAPE PRINTER_RESOLUTION_Y: specifies the y-resolution in DPI, value must be an integer. PRINTER_RESOLUTION_X: specifies the x-resolution in DPI, value must be an integer. PRINTER_PAPER_FORMAT: specifies the a predefined paper format, set value to PRINTER_FORMAT_CUSTOM if you want to specify a custom format with PRINTER_PAPER_WIDTH and PRINTER_PAPER_LENGTH. value can be one of the following constants. PRINTER_FORMAT_CUSTOM: let's you specify a custom paper format. PRINTER_FORMAT_LETTER: specifies standard letter format (8 1/2- by 11-inches). PRINTER_FORMAT_LETTER: specifies standard legal format (8 1/2- by 14-inches). PRINTER_FORMAT_A3: specifies standard A3 format (297- by 420-millimeters). PRINTER_FORMAT_A4: specifies standard A4 format (210- by 297-millimeters). PRINTER_FORMAT_A5: specifies standard A5 format (148- by 210-millimeters). PRINTER_FORMAT_B4: specifies standard B4 format (250- by 354-millimeters). PRINTER_FORMAT_B5: specifies standard B5 format (182- by 257-millimeter). PRINTER_FORMAT_FOLIO: specifies standard FOLIO format (8 1/2- by 13-inch). PRINTER_PAPER_LENGTH: if PRINTER_PAPER_FORMAT is set to PRINTER_FORMAT_CUSTOM, PRINTER_PAPER_LENGTH specifies a custom paper length in mm, value must be an integer. PRINTER_PAPER_WIDTH: if PRINTER_PAPER_FORMAT is set to PRINTER_FORMAT_CUSTOM, PRINTER_PAPER_WIDTH specifies a custom paper width in mm, value must be an integer. PRINTER_SCALE: specifies the factor by which the printed output is to be scaled. the page size is scaled from the physical page size by a factor of scale/100. for example if you set the scale to 50, the output would be half of it's original size. value must be an integer. PRINTER_BACKGROUND_COLOR: specifies the background color for the actual device context, value must be a string containing the rgb information in hex format i.e. "005533". PRINTER_TEXT_COLOR: specifies the text color for the actual device context, value must be a string containing the rgb information in hex format i.e. "005533". PRINTER_TEXT_ALIGN: specifies the text alignment for the actual device context, value can be combined through OR'ing the following constants: PRINTER_TA_BASELINE: text will be aligned at the base line. PRINTER_TA_BOTTOM: text will be aligned at the bottom. PRINTER_TA_TOP: text will be aligned at the top. PRINTER_TA_CENTER: text will be aligned at the center. PRINTER_TA_LEFT: text will be aligned at the left. PRINTER_TA_RIGHT: text will be aligned at the right. Example 649. printer_set_option() example copy to clipboard $handle = printer_open(); printer_set_option($handle, PRINTER_SCALE, 75); printer_set_option($handle, PRINTER_TEXT_ALIGN, PRINTER_TA_LEFT); printer_close($handle); User contributed notes: info@sima-pc.com (20-Oct-2002 01:36) Warning : PRINTER_FORMAT_LETTER = LETTER 8.5x11 PRINTER_FORMAT_LEGAL = LEGAL 8.5x14 If your printer uses custom paper size, printer_get_option will return an unpredictable code.
