Summary:

Some of the return codes that identify paper sizes for the PostScript

printer driver (PSCRIPT) are not documented in the Windows Software

Development Kit (SDK) version 3.0 include file, DRIVINIT.H. The

omitted constants are listed below:

#define DMPAPER_LETTER_EXTRA 50

#define DMPAPER_LEGAL_EXTRA 51

#define DMPAPER_TABLOID_EXTRA 52

#define DMPAPER_A4_EXTRA 53

More Information:

The DRIVINIT.H file contains constants (defined with the prefix

DMPAPER_) for all the standard paper sizes. These constants are

usually retrieved from the printer driver by using the ExtDeviceMode

function, and examining the dmPaperSize field. Some drivers support

the paper sizes listed above, and will return one of the listed

constants if the extra paper size is selected in the ExtDeviceMode

dialog box.

The version of the DRIVINIT.H file distributed with the Windows Device

Development Kit (DDK) version 3.0 includes the above constants,

however, the version of this file shipped with the Windows SDK

version 3.0 does not include the above constants. The version of this

file included with the Windows SDK version 3.1 does include the above

constants.
