MeadCo's ScriptX :: MaxiPT :: Feature Set #2 : Optimal layout

This example demonstrates the Optimal Layout capability of the Feature Set #2 provided by MeadCo's MaxiPT print template.

Invoke Print Preview here or from IE's native controls to see it in action. Please view the source of this example (choose the Source command on the View menu).

Optimal Layout

In Print Preview, select the Page Setup toolbar button and set all margins to "0".

The Optimal Layout functionality can be set from script as follows:

The document will be re-paginated if the content height on the last page is less then 1 inch:
```
  document.printingRules.optimalPageLayout = true;
```
The document will be re-paginated if the content height on the last page is less then the specified value in inches:
```
  document.printingRules.limitContentLastPage = 2.5;
      // inches
```

The pages can be adjusted from the top, bottom or both ends during the optimization:

  document.printingRules.optimalPageLayoutDirection = "Equally";
      // "Top", "Bottom", "Equally"
