You will often want to "save" and "load" particular page setups, perhaps for different types of reports which should print landscape and portrait, for example.
The key to doing this is 4D's Page Setup command. 4D associates a page setup with each form. This need not be the page setup used for that form; it is just a convenient place to "save" page setups. To save a particular page setup, open the form you wish to save the page setup with, and choose Page Setup from the File menu. Whatever settings you choose will be saved with that form when you click on the OK button in the Page Setup dialog. In this way, you can save as many different page setups as you need. If you have more page setups than forms, you may even want to create blank forms which exist for no other reason than to hold a page setup.
To use a page setup associated with a form in this way, you call the Page
Setup command, and pass it the form whose page setup you want to use next.
An example of how to do this is provided in the description of the command.
Command PAGE SETUP
There are known problems with some of HP's Windows printer drivers for PCL printers. If you have such a printer, if it supports Postscript, your best option is to use a Windows PostScript printer driver. If the printer does not support PostScript, you should use the Microsoft- supplied HP driver (rather than the one that came with the printer). Both of these are available on the Windows CD or floppy disks.
