Bob,

Your application interface can make available a print-preview widget separate
from the client's print button.  We do this.  The widget fires a different
transformation to build FO and process with FOP from the Jakarta projects.
Returning PDF, the client opens Acrobat Reader to view and presents its own
print controls which do honor page format instructions in the PDF.  You have
much more control of your print layout using this method, as opposed to allowing
the client browser render HTML to a page.

Subject: [xsl] Landscape print control


We have to produce landscape reports transforming XML to HTML so it can be
viewed in the current version of I.E. browser.  I think the answer is, "No!"
but I'll ask my question anyway.  Is there a way to force landscape printing
using XSL?

Service with a smile,
