Yes, the docs are poorly worded if this is the case. I experimented to come to the conclusion the docs are poorly worded and this, from visual inspection, seems to work put the printPaperRectangle into tPaperRect put item 1 of tPaperRect into tPaperLeft put item 2 of tPaperRect into tPaperTop put item 3 of tPaperRect into tPaperWidth put item 4 of tPaperRect into tPaperHeight put tPaperLeft/2 into tOffsetH put tPaperTop/2 into tOffsetV set the printMargins to tMargin + tOffsetH, tMargin + tOffsetV, tMargin - tOffsetH, tMargin - tOffsetV All the best Terry _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
