four printing options (again)

four printing options (again)

[Pablo Rodriguez]

Hans,

we have talked about this feature improvement before. You told me to
report again in a month, since TeX Live 2016 was first.

The four printing options would be:

  duplex    page portrait landscape (implemented in the "option" key)

  fixed     (no value is required)

  copies    an number

  pdfsize   yes no

The option copies would implement /NumCopies and pdfsize would implement
/PickTrayByPDFSize, both from the /ViewerPreferences dictionary (as
explained in
https://wwwimages2.adobe.com/content/dam/Adobe/en/devnet/pdf/pdfs/PDF32000_2008.pdf#page=365).

It would be great to have a \setupprinting command for these four
options. At least, I think having the four printing options independent
from the viewing options (as the key "option" does right now).

Many thanks for your help,

Pablo

The option key for \setupinteractionscreen accepts since a while a list 
with arguments, e.g.

    \setupinteractionscreen[option={duplex,fixed}]

Many thanks for your extremely instructive reply, Wolfgang.

>> pdfsize yes no

BTW, this concrete option (/PickTrayByPDFSize) hasn’t been implemented,
has it?

All I can say is that I had no idea that this has been enabled.

Many thanks for your help again,

Pablo

This should be enabled (untested) when you use the "paper" option.

Many thanks for your reply, Wolfgang.

This is the right option.

Many thanks for the implementation, Hans.

I’ll update the wiki on this topic.
