73.0. "blpw files" by WAYOUT::ALLAMS () Fri Feb 21 1992 16:12

Hi,


	In boilerplate files, is there any command to set up any of the 
	page layout other than the page length (oa$page_length)

	In particular - to set the header margin.

	I have been finding that the boilerplate gets it's header margin from
	my print settings as I am creating the boilerplate - so if I change 
	my print settings, the result of the merge has the settings from the
	boiler plate - not my current ones.

	My customer is not seeing this - what would solve the problem is some
	sort of merge directive like oa$header_margin

73.1APPEND a WPS-PLUS file with desired settingsOSPREY::LAAHSTwo Cute Celts are better than oneMon Feb 24 1992 12:4915
    Steve,
    
    I *think* what you are asking for is a way to set the print settings to
    be other than your current default?
    
    The way I do this is to have a blank WPS-PLUS file that is APPENDed to
    my output at the end. The reason for doing this is that the print
    settings will be taken from this file. Therefore, as part of yoru
    application set-up, you can create a blank WSP-PLUS file, set the print
    settinsg and then copy this file to an application area from where it
    can be appended. If you ever want to change the print settings in the
    future you merely change those asscociated with the blank file.
    
    Does this help?
