Setting margins before printing

1. offizieller Beitrag

    Sorry, I want to change the default page size. This is measurein "TWPS", but how to convert to inches?
    Also, Can I set the ruller right size, befor loading the rtfdata?
    At this time, the ruller shows at the left edge of the wprtfedit component.
    I want to force the ruller to show a right margin at 7.5 inches.

    Hi,

    twips := Round( inch * 1440 );

    >>Also, Can I set the ruller right size, befor loading the rtfdata?

    That would only make sense if you use the format option:

    'AUTO-ignorepagesize'

    it will be preserved.

    I recommend to set the Page size in the OnClear event.

    Alternativey you can set the props Header.Default ... (see object inspector)

    In normal mode the ruler is at the very left edge. You can use the property XOffset to indent it a bit. In layout mode the ruler position is controlled by the left margin.
