Re: [sqr-users] printing two portrait pages on a landscape page?

[<jwillson@dssltd.com>]

Hi Marc, some printers (Xerox, IBM transport underneath the physical versus 
logical page) will allow you to select that as a printer setup option in the 
driver (multiple logical pages on one physical page, seascape, landscape, 
shrink, etc); however, I have only done it using a postscript printer (not 
HP since it needs quarter inch of transport on left and right side).  Some 
of the problems include whether you are using fixed versus proportional font 
and whether you are using html and/or a line printer and of course images. 
The SQR user group library has some code that might provide some 
assistance.  How the includes there mesh with Oracle/PeopleSoft sqc's I 
can't comment on without experimentation.
