    Page setup

    Hi,
    Is it possible to control the page setup (margins, header, footer,
    orientation, ...) without installing a new ActiveX. I found
    informations on TEMPLATEPRINTER but, if I understood well, the users
    have to install an ActiveX... So, not good!!!

    thanks for you help,

    regards

    - Patrick

    Sounds like something that would need css.

      I'm asking the question here...

        As Fabian said, this would be best solved using CSS2 ("Paged Media"). Try
        asking in comp.infosystem s.www.authoring.stylesheets.

          No. You can't change the browser printing setting from inside the page
          (thank <deity>). You need something with more rights that page based
          Javascript, e.g., an activeX control for IE (which won't work in other
          browsers at all).
