SetPrintScale

Description

Use this method to specify the scale to be used during printing - this is print scaling, not view zooming.

The IE 7 style template is required for this method to have any effect.

Syntax

printing.SetPrintScale(lScale)

Parameter

Description

lScale

(Number) The print scale to use, expressed as a percentage. The value must be either less than zero or between 30 and 999 or it will be ignored. Values less than denotes 'scale to fit' where, if necessary, the content is scaled to fit thewidthof the paper - if scaling is not necessary to fit, 100% scaling is used. -1 means the smallest scale factor to use will be 30%. For ScritpX 8 or later other negative values denote the (absolute value) smallest factor to use. So, for example -15 means a smallest scale factor of 15%.
