Question

Captivate 5 AS3 print widget

Hello.  I have a question regarding the Captivate 5 print widget.  I noticed that the Captivate 5 print widget that comes with the software does not automatically switch the print properties to landscape mode and resize the image to properly fit the print-out.  Can you tell me if there are any Captivate 5 AS3 print widgets available that would do this?  If not maybe some tips on creating my own?  We have created or own customized course completion certificate and do not wish to use the certificate widget that came with the software.

Thank you!

    Hi there,

    PrintJob Class in Package flash.printing has orientation as a read only property for Flash player versions 9 and above. So i think you may not be able to change the orientation property.

    Thanks
