Hi,

I'm using QR in my program, and when designing reports, the standard setting
for paper.papersize is "A4".

Now this works fine in Europe, but my US users are complaining... They want
a setting of "Letter" instead.

In a beforeprint event I can switch it - but how do I get the papersize
setting from the default windows printer?

I have tried the following code:

with TQRPrinterSettings.Create do
begin
Printerindex:=-1;
frm_rpt_port.Page.PaperSize:=PaperSize;
frm_rpt_port.Page.Orientation:=Orientation;
frm_rpt_port.PrinterSettings.Copies:=Copies;
Free;
end;

or
frm_rpt_port.Page.PaperSize:=frm_rpt_port.PrinterSettings.PaperSize;

But they always seem to return "Letter" even though I change the printer
setting in windows.

So how do I get the correct printer setting from window, so that I can set
QR to use the setting from the windows standard choosen printer?

Regards, Michael.
