The end user doesn't have to change any printer settings.
Default for 99% of us is portrait right?

Why don’t you build a landscape printjob? From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of Dave Burnett

Subject: [Xerte] Re: print question Turned out to be an oldie-goldie.

We are rotating the cert to print landscape.
To rotate fonts, they have to be embedded.
For embedded fonts to display, they have to be included in a custom resource.swf.
The new resource.swf has to be in the same directory as the .rlo.

Subject: [Xerte] Re: print questionYou need to build the print job: it’s not necessarily for the faint hearted: http://www.actionscript.org/resources/articles/206/1/The-PrintJob-class/Page1.html I think you should try and print a page, showcert maybe, or build another page specifically for the pj and hang it off a framework, From: xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk [mailto:xerte-bounces at lists.nottingham.ac.uk] On Behalf Of KnowledgeWare

Subject: [Xerte] print question I’m using ‘printJob’ to print a certificate (thanks Dave). PrintJob calls the ID of the ‘showcert’ page below. The certificate is loaded into the flowline then things like the coursename, company, username,date etc. are displayed on top of it. The problem is only the ‘blank’ certificate itself prints, not the items displayed ‘on top’ of it like username, coursename, date, etc. How can I have the print function grab all the appropriate items….is there a way I need to ‘group’ these icons (like a FW) then call the parent? Thanks for suggestions… RonM2
