Well, since it all seems to have got a bit lost somewhere on this
internet thingy, glad I asked!
I've managed to modify page setup so you can set paper and orientation
defaults, and hacked an example.exw of how to transfer settings from
page setup to the print dialogue, which did not previously happen.
getPrinter (and getPrintChoice) and getPageSetup(Ex) now return
additional info (collate, print to file, paper, and orientation), and
startDoc now permits print to file (not as useful as it sounds).
Also PD_PAGENUMS is no longer used (it *defaults* the 2nd radio
(Pages from/to) - not as one might imagine permit user to click it -
rather than leaving the 1st radio (All pages) as the default).
I strongly suspect there is a better way to "black box" the code from
example.exw within win32lib, perhaps by retaining the pSetupDlg and
pPrintDlg structures permanently? On the other hand the existing
comment "pPrintDlg is used for experts only." prolly covers it.
I'm undecided whether the slew of new constants for paper orientation
and size are put in a new, not normally included file, or whether that
causes more trouble than it is worth.
