Duplex Printing
Is it possible to embed duplex printing codes within certain documents, as
you can with Wordperfect, so they will automatically duplex print without you having to alter the printer properties? |

You could use a PRINT field - if your printer accepts PCL commands
A PRINT field is simply a type of field that sends instructions directly to the printer. There are 3 possible data values for duplex setting: PRINT 27"&l0S" simplex PRINT 27"&l1S" vertical duplex . PRINT 27"&l2S" horizontal duplex (bookformat) The codes after PRINT are 27 (escape), double quote, ampersand, lowercase L, 0, 1 or 2, uppercase S and finally terminated a double quote. -- Graham Mayor - Word MVP My web site www.gmayor.com Word MVP web site http://word.mvps.org Stalky wrote: Is it possible to embed duplex printing codes within certain documents, as you can with Wordperfect, so they will automatically duplex print without you having to alter the printer properties? |
