Apple describes a low-level printing bug in Tech Note #124 and makes it sound like low-level printing is gradually becoming de-supported. The PrGeneral call (TN #128) is a big start on having a clean, formally-defined interface. It appears as though the code ablock: TDftBitsBlk; ablock.iOpCode := draftBitsOp; ablock.hPrint := myprinthandle; PrGeneral(@ablock); will set draft-mode printing. To set 'Best' mode, the TSetRslBlk parameter to PrGeneral allows you to select a resolution. There's also a GetRotn call to say landscape/portrait. If only there were a SetRotn. -- Joel West, (c/o UCSD) Palomar Software, Inc., P.O. Box 2635, Vista, CA 92083 {ucbvax,ihnp4}!sdcsvax!jww jww@sdcsvax.ucsd.edu
