Create single print files like the .ini on V8i

i have been reading these forums to find this answer (Create single print files like the .ini on V8i) and tried many differnet ways to get this to work. i am not using the .pset files beacuse it needs a file name associated with it. i need to have a way to create a file(like the .ini file in V8) that users can load and use on the print window. i cannot use the .pset files beacuse we change our file names everytime we make changes, so that would be way too much print organizing everytime. can someone please help with this. if you need more info just ask. i am puzzled on how to get this to work.

  • Hi Tim,

    I am glad that his maybe what you are looking for.  After your assessment of them we will be interested to hear your thoughts (or anyones) on how they are used and interact with the print dialog.

  • OK i have been working with the printing styles and it works AWESOME! you need to setup your print driver configurations and then setup your print styles using the print driver configurations. i am in the process of adding a ton of print drivers and styles(12 overall for each). John in regards to the print styles that was my missing link. i did not utilize the print styles on the print screen(i just never saw it to be honest) and now i have to grab a few lab rats in the office to get them to try things out. Jo Terri thank you for your input as well i only been working with V8i for a week so this helps me understand how the transition from V8 to V8i works for printing. i will post any info anyone else needs this stuff is embedded in my brain now.
