Dennis, If that's true about the GetDeviceCaps and the PCL driver, then calling it is just about worthless. The actual unprintable area on a Series II is almost exactly .20, as measured from an actual printout which prints off the edges of both sides of the page. If accuracy is critical, then the figure you mentioned won't give you what you need. What I'm doing these days is just assuming .33 for all my stuff, then adjusting from there. That wouldn't work for printing on pre-printed forms, but it seems to work OK when dimensioning isn't critical. George There is 1 Reply.
