'Declaration
 
Public Property SmartPrintPagesWide As Integer
'Usage
 
Dim instance As PrintInfo

instance.SmartPrintPagesWide = value
 
value = instance.SmartPrintPagesWide
public int SmartPrintPagesWide {get; set;}

Property Value

Integer number of pages
Remarks

This property attempts to print the data using the specified number of pages.  If the data requires fewer pages than specified, fewer pages are used. The font size may be reduced in order to make the data fit in the specified number of pages.  If the data exceeds the number of pages, printing resumes normally.

For more information about optimum printing, refer to Optimizing Printing.

Example
This example shows how to define the settings for optimizing the printing.
// Typically you would use one type of optimization; they are all shown here for illustration only

// Define the printer settings for optimization
FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintInfo printset = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintInfo();
FarPoint.Win.Spread.SmartPrintRulesCollection prules = new FarPoint.Win.Spread.SmartPrintRulesCollection(); 

// ... use best fit of columns and rows
printset.BestFitCols = true;
printset.BestFitRows = true;

// ... or check by page size
printset.SmartPrintPagesTall = 1; 
printset.SmartPrintPagesWide = 1; 

// ... or use the rules defined
prules.Add(new FarPoint.Win.Spread.BestFitColumnRule(FarPoint.Win.Spread.ResetOption.None)); 
prules.Add(new FarPoint.Win.Spread.LandscapeRule(FarPoint.Win.Spread.ResetOption.Current)); 
prules.Add(new FarPoint.Win.Spread.ScaleRule(FarPoint.Win.Spread.ResetOption.None, 1, 0.6, 0.1)); 
printset.SmartPrintRules = prules;
printset.UseSmartPrint = true;

// Assign the printer settings to the sheet and print it
fpSpread1.Sheets[0].PrintInfo = printset;
fpSpread1.PrintSheet(0);
' Typically you would use one type of optimization; they are all shown here for illustration only

' Define the printer settings for optimization
Dim printset As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.PrintInfo()
Dim prules As New FarPoint.Win.Spread.SmartPrintRulesCollection

' ... use best fit of columns and rows
printset.BestFitCols = True
printset.BestFitRows = True

' ... or check by page size
printset.SmartPrintPagesTall = 1
printset.SmartPrintPagesWide = 1

' ... or use the rules defined
prules.Add(New FarPoint.Win.Spread.BestFitColumnRule(FarPoint.Win.Spread.ResetOption.None)) 
prules.Add(New FarPoint.Win.Spread.LandscapeRule(FarPoint.Win.Spread.ResetOption.Current))
prules.Add(New FarPoint.Win.Spread.ScaleRule(FarPoint.Win.Spread.ResetOption.None, 1, 0.6, 0.1))
printset.SmartPrintRules = prules
printset.UseSmartPrint = True

' Assign the printer settings to the sheet and print it
FpSpread1.Sheets(0).PrintInfo = printset
FpSpread1.PrintSheet(0)
