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.

As Fabian said, this would be best solved using CSS2 ("Paged Media"). Try
asking in comp.infosystems.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).
