SYMPTOMS
The NEXTBAND section on page 25 of the "Microsoft Windows 2.00
Software Development Kit Update" incorrectly states that
Escape(...NEWFRAME...) should be called after the last NEXTBAND on
a page. When this command sequence is followed, extra blank pages
are generated.
RESOLUTION
NEWFRAME and NEXTBAND are exclusive; an application must call one
or the other, however, both should never be called. When using
NEWFRAME, the call must be placed at the bottom of every page to
output the page and start a new page.
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a documentation error on Page
25 of the "Microsoft Windows 2.00 Software Development Kit Update".
We will post new information here when this error has been
corrected.
More Information:
Please note that ENDDOC and ABORTDOC are also exclusive. ABORTDOC is
used when it is necessary to abort the document (for example, the
application has detected an error or the Print command is cancelled).
Some output may have already been sent to the device at the time of
the ABORTDOC, however, any additional output will be discarded. ENDDOC
is used to close and send a completed document.
