There is a strange behaviour when modifying Vertical and Horizontal
pitches in Printer Setup of the printer table: PS_3500.PRA (ALL-IN-1/US 3.2)
When increasing Vertical and Horizontal Pitch (e.g. from VP: 6 and HP: 10
to VP: 10 and HP: 15) the output on the Printer 'HP Laserjet 4'
with printstyle "PS" is moving to the left down corner. What is to do
to center the printer output ?

Ingo,
Set the Page Size field to reflect the new Vertical Pitch. You'll
probably find that it is set to 66 (11 inches @ 6 pitch). If you set it
to 110 (11 inches @ 10 pitch) that should solve your problem.
With PostScript printing the origin is in the bottom left-hand corner
(unlike ANSI printing). This means that your 66 lines are printed in
the bottom left, giving you the unusual output.
Hope that helps,
Russ.

| 2651.2 | More flexible with 'Vertical Spacing Adjustment' ? | FRAIS::EDDF10::BEELE | Wed Apr 30 1997 19:42 | 11 | |
Thanks for the hint to use Page Size: 110 - It works !
Is there also a way (more flexible) to do this with using
'Vertical Spacing Adjustment' parameter in 'Printer Setup' of
printer Tables ?
Regards
Ingo

"Vertical spacing adjustment" and "Horizontal spacing adjustment" were
designed for _small_ adjustments to the PostScript origin. For example,
they can be used to overcome the slight differences between origins on
different makes of printers; or to get your pre-printed stationery to
line up a bit better.
The values are added to every PostScript coordinate that the WPS-PLUS
formatter produces. For this reason I do not recommend using them for
the purpose you described.
Russ.
