<QP>
Is there any way to use Print Templates feature as described in article
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnie55/html/beyondprintpreview.asp?

They say we can customize how Internet Explorer print and preview documents but all examples does not seem to work in ie60 or any
other browser I tested.

Even if I run it from HTA it's not working!

How can I get it to work?

Use the source for the IE Print, Preview command for tips? <eg>

Hint: use FileMon filtering on Temp to find out the name of the
script file (each instance gets a unique name) and capture it from
there before the dialog is closed.


Good luck

Robert,

Filemon tool does not help, ie just copy printed or previewed file to temp
directory...
Click to expand...

Andrey,

I can't tell what you're looking at.

Did you find the source of the File, Print Preview command?
That's the ultimate objective of my suggestion.
If you found the source through some other way
I would be interested in knowing how.

I'm online now so here's a link to the previous thread
where I discovered this technique:

I need to set page layout to landscape programmatically and change page head
and foot. Don't have a clue how to do that.

There is possibility to set page layout in CSS2 (@page (page layout) style),
but it doesn't seems to work in IE. Print Templates also can do that but it
does not work too...

Can I do all these things from HTML, HTA, whatever or is it impossible and I
should stuck in 3rd party components?
