  Print layout- change default settings

  Feb 04, 2019 08:42 AM|qsoft_developer|LINK

  Hi,

  Is there a way to change default print layout to landscape in Chrome and IE browsers?

  I tried using the following code:

  printWindow.document.write('<style>@page { size: landscape; }</style>');
  

  However, it makes the Layout option disappear in Chrome, and in IE it doesn't seem to work at all.

  I would like the user to still have the option to change the layout in case he wants to, but the default should always stay on landscape.

  Hi qsoft_developer,

  I would like the user to still have the option to change the layout in case he wants to, but the default should always stay on landscape.

  As far as I know, we couldn't directly modify the Chrome default setting by html codes. The browser only support modify the print setting by using @page.

  I suggest you could post this issue on the chome forum as below url:

  Besides, IE doesn't support modify the size by using landscape, I suggest you could also post this question on below forum.
