Landscape is useless

[zhangwei8387]

I have a problem with Spire.PDF For NET.
In my Project I used Spire.PDF to print a PDF file.
My Code is under:

Spire.Pdf.PdfDocument doc = new Spire.Pdf.PdfDocument();
doc.LoadFromFile(filepath);
doc.PrintDocument.PrinterSettings.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = true;
doc.PrintDocument.PrinterSettings.Copies = 4;
doc.PrintDocument.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = PrinterName;//from parameters.

doc.PrintDocument.PrinterSettings.Duplex = System.Drawing.Printing.Duplex.Vertical
doc.PrintDocument.Print();
doc.Close();

But，this line doc.PrintDocument.PrinterSettings.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = true; is useless. The printer always printed the file in portrait style.
I am sure my Printer can print in Landscape.Please see the shotcut picture.

Dear zhang wei,

After investigation, we found the document printed page orientation is automatically adjusted according to the original document page orientation. If your file page is landscape, the page will be landscape after printing. If your file page is portrait, the page will be portrait after printing. If your file page is portrait and you want to set printing Shortcuts orientation as landscape, the result may be not good, and there will be white space on the right side of the page.
If you really need this feature, please tell us, our Dev team will do it.

Thank you for your supports.
Although my demand is weird.But I think the class : "spire.PDF.PrintDocument" was Inherited from "System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument".
I tried "System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape =true" to print a text file in landscape ,and it worked correctly.so I think spire.pdf can also have same function.
The needs of customers are protean. Developers should not lower requirements.
Am I right?


Best Regards,

Hi Betsy,

I'm using the Spire_PDf free for printing existing pdf-documents.
This version experiences the same problem. Any chance of getting the same enhancement in the free version too?

Thanks

Hello,

Thanks for your inquiry.
We will update the feature into Free version in the future. But I am afraid that it may need some time due to other priority issues because we only maintain our free product when we have enough time.
