Initializing the Page Setup Dialog Box

By default, the Page Setup dialog box displays information about the current default printer. To direct the dialog box to display information about a specific printer, set the members of a DEVMODE or DEVNAMES structure and assign the global memory handles of these structures to the corresponding member in PAGESETUPDLG. If you specify the name of a printer that is not currently installed, the dialog box displays an error message. To prevent the dialog box from displaying error messages, use the PSD_NOWARNING value. To retrieve information about the default printer without displaying the Page Setup dialog box, use the PSD_RETURNDEFAULT value.

If the default measurement system is inches, the dialog box uses thousandths of inches as the default unit of measurement. If the default measurement system is metric, the dialog box uses hundredths of millimeters as the default unit of measurement. To override the default unit of measurement, set the PSD_INHUNDREDTHSOFMILLIMETERS or PSD_INTHOUSANDTHSOFINCHES flag in the Flags member of the PAGESETUPDLG structure.

The initial values for the margins are one inch, by default. If you set the PSD_MARGINS flag, the dialog box displays the initial margin values specified in the rtMargin member. The default minimum values that the user can specify for the margins are the minimum margins allowed by the printer. If you set the PSD_MINMARGINS flag, the dialog box enforces the minimum margins specified in the rtMinMargin member.

To prevent users from selecting certain options, set any combination of the following flags to disable the corresponding controls.
