The Advanced Text Print Properties dialog.

Summary

This dialog allows the designer to configure more advanced properties when printing text documents.

Access

The dialog is accessed in the following ways:

  • By clicking the Advanced button, in the Text Print Properties dialog.
The Text Print Properties dialog is accessed by right-clicking on the entry for the text document, in the Projects panel, and choosing the Page Setup command from the context menu.
  • Right-clicking in the Print Preview dialog, and choosing the Configuration command from the context menu.
The Print Preview dialog can be accessed by right-clicking on the entry for the text document, in the Projects panel, and choosing the Print Preview command from the context menu.
  • With the entry for Text Print selected, on the Default Prints tab of the Project Options dialog (Project | Content | ), click the Configure button.

Options/Controls

  • Header - enable this option to include a header on each printed page, consisting of the document's name, and full path information.
  • Page Numbers - enable this option to include page numbers on the printed page(s).
  • Line Numbers - enable this option to include line numbers on the printed page(s).
With the Line Numbers option enabled, the actual line numbers displayed will follow the state of the Show all numbers sub-option, on the Text Editors - Display page of the Preferences dialog. If this option is enabled, then all line numbers will be displayed on the printed page(s). If it is disabled, then every tenth number will be displayed, with dot marks for other lines (and dashes for every fifth line).
  • Syntax print - enable this option to have any applicable syntax highlighting also displayed on the printed page(s).
  • Wrap lines - enable this option to have text on the printed page wrapped.
Note that this option only applies when wrapping is not used on the document in the workspace itself. If wrapping is used already, then the print will just reflect that, and toggling the Wrap lines option will have no effect.
  • Use Specific Font - enable this option to use a different font for printed text. With this option disabled, the text used will be that defined in the Font region, on the Text Editors - Display page of the Preferences dialog.
    • Currently Used Font - this field shows the font that will be used for printed text if the Use Specific Font option is enabled. The entry reflects the name of the chosen font, and its point size.
    • Change - click this button to access the standard Font dialog, with which to choose and configure the intended print font as required.
