Thanks for your response. Sorry I am so slow picking this up.
One question - The &printerfile_port parameter in the DocumentProperties() -
what data type is this, the help for OpenPrinter seems to say it is
    LPTSTR pPrinterName, // pointer to printer or server name
I can get the printer name from the
Printer()->Printers->Strings[PrinterIndex] object as a TString data type,
this is not a null terminated array of char, but I can convert it if
necessary. How should I declare the printerfile_port variable?
