Add form to Windows Print Server
Posted: Sat Jul 18, 2015 11:53 am
Does anyone know how to ADD a form or Overwrite a form in the Windows Print Server?.
I have an app that will require many different form sizes to print on wide body, Okidata Microline dot matrix printers.
These forms can range from 8 1/2 by 11 to 20 X 36. They are preprinted, multi part bank contracts. I just need to fill in the blanks.
Rather than have a user set up all the different form names and sizes I would like to use just one form name in my print program. Just prior to printing I would like to create that form in the Windows print server or modify the form that may be already there. The form dimensions and specs etc would be sent along to create or modify it on the fly
I have found some API calls on the web but they are all for VB or c++. Perhaps there is a third party activex that does this. I cannot find anything in xbase to do it.
Thanks
