Members:

Name Type Description
size AT_UINT Size of the data structure. Must be set to sizeof(AT_PDF_PRINTPARAMS).
ranges AT_PDF_PAGE_RANGE* Ranges of pages to print. Use NULL to print the entire document.
numRanges AT_INT32 Number of ranges of pages to print in ranges. The default value is 0.
shrinkToFit AT_PDF_BOOL TRUE if the page is scaled to fit the printer page size; FALSE otherwise. This field overrides scale. The default value is FALSE.
expandToFit AT_PDF_BOOL TRUE if small pages are to be scaled up to fit the printer page size; FALSE otherwise. Overrides scale. The default value is FALSE.
rotateAndCenter AT_PDF_BOOL TRUE if page is to be rotated to fit printer's orientation, and centered in printer's page size; FALSE otherwise.The default value is FALSE. Rotation and centering (TRUE) only occur, however, if the page contents are too wide to fit on a narrow page (or vice versa) and the page contents are less than an inch smaller than the target page in one direction.
printWhat CHAR enumIGPDFPrintWhat flag. Default is IG_PDF_PRINT_DOCUMENT.
printWhatAnnot CHAR Combination of enumIGPDFPrintWhatAnnot flags which extend printWhat to enable product behavior.
emitPS AT_PDF_BOOL If TRUE, emit a PostScript file. The default value is TRUE.
psLevel AT_INT32 PostScript level: 1, 2 or 3. The default value is 2.
outputType CHAR Print PostScript or EPS with or without a preview.
incBaseFonts CHAR Embed the base fonts. The default value is IG_PDF_INCLUDE_NEVER.

incOtherResources CHAR Include all other types of resources in the file. The default value is IG_PDF_INCLUDE_ONCE_PER_DOC.
fontPerDocVM AT_INT32

Amount of VM available for font downloading at the document level. Ignored if <=0. 

This must be set to 0 for the toolkit; it is only used by the viewer.

emitShowpage AT_PDF_BOOL Emit save and restore showpage in PostScript files. The default value is TRUE.
emitTTFontsFirst AT_PDF_BOOL Emit TrueType fonts before any other fonts. The default value is FALSE.
setPageSize AT_PDF_BOOL (PostScript level 2 only) Set the page size on each page. Use the media box for outputting to PostScript files, use the crop box for EPS files. Default is FALSE.

useSubFileDecode AT_PDF_BOOL Add SubFileDecode filter to work around stream problems. The default value is FALSE.
emitRawData AT_PDF_BOOL TRUE if add no unnecessary filters when emitting image data; FALSE otherwise. The default value is TRUE.
TTasT42 AT_PDF_BOOL If including TrueType fonts, convert to Type 42 fonts instead of Type 1 fonts. The default value is FALSE.
scale AT_FLOAT Document-wide scale factor. 100.0 = full size. The default value is 100.
emitExternalStreamRef AT_PDF_BOOL If an Image resource uses an external stream, emit code that points to the external file. The default value is FALSE.
This must be set to FALSE.
emitHalftones AT_PDF_BOOL Preserve any halftone screening in the PDF file. The default value is FALSE.
emitPSXObjects AT_PDF_BOOL Emit PostScript XObjects into the PostScript stream. The default value is FALSE.
centerCropBox AT_PDF_BOOL TRUE if CropBox output is centered on the page when the CropBox < MediaBox; FALSE otherwise. The default value is TRUE.
emitSeparableImagesOnly AT_PDF_BOOL If emitting EPS, include only CMYK and gray images.
emitDeviceExtGState AT_PDF_BOOL When emitting the extended graphics state, include the device-dependent parameters (overprint, black generation, undercolor removal, transfer, halftone, halftone phase, smoothness, flatness, rendering intent) in addition to the device-independent parameters (font, line width, line cap, line join, miter limit, dash pattern). If this flag is FALSE, only the device-independent parameters will be emitted. This flag overrides emitHalftones; if this is FALSE, then halftones are not emitted. The default value is TRUE.
boundingBox AT_PDF_FIXEDRECT If all zeroes, is ignored. Otherwise, is used for %BoundingBox DSC comment and in centerCropBox calculations and for setpagedevice. The default value is [0 0 0 0].
useFontAliasNames AT_PDF_BOOL Used when printing with system fonts. The default value is FALSE.
emitPageRotation AT_PDF_BOOL Emit a concat at the beginning of each page so that the page is properly rotated. Used when emitting EPS. The default value is FALSE.
reverse AT_PDF_BOOL If set to TRUE, reverse the order of page output.
tCropBox AT_PDF_FIXEDRECT* Temporary crop box to represent selected region.
emitPageClip AT_PDF_BOOL Set to TRUE to emit page clip.

destProfile char[256] If hostBaseCM color management is TRUE, use this profile.
destCSAtom HIG_PDF_ATOM An atom representing the device color space (DeviceGray, DeviceRGB, etc.).
saveVM AT_PDF_BOOL TRUE means try to save VM when printing to PostScript.
doOPP AT_PDF_BOOL If TRUE, do the overprint preview operation.
suppressOPPWhenNoSpots AT_INT32 When TRUE, suppress OPP for pages that do not contain spot colors
optimizeForSpeed AT_PDF_BOOL If TRUE, do it fast; FALSE means PostScript code must be page independent. If set to TRUE, font downloads are forced from IG_PDF_INCLUDE_ON_EVERY_PAGE to IG_PDF_INCLUDE_ONCE_PER_DOC.
