Hi George, <<…ScaleMode reverts to User setting. What this means is that setting any of those properties destroys your original ScaleMode settings.>> Could I get a clarification on that please. When you say, "destroy", do you mean that the settings such as ScaleWidth, ScaleTop, etc, become undefined? I haven't experienced this problem. However, I haven't been using these properties on a printer object, only on a picture control. With regards to experimenting with printing. Lordy, you are so right. It sure would be nice to have a way to prevent Win3 from doing a Form Feed after every print job. I'm working on an App that is going to have to be able to output graphics to a dotmatrix, an HP laser, a Postscript laser, an HP plotter or an electrostatic plotter running under Calcomp emulation. I have no idea how I'm going to accomplish this and I dread starting that phase of the project. If anyone is writing a book on VB, I hope they will devote a large in depth chapter to the art of creating hardcopy. KeithF There is 1 Reply.
