Printing in the Workbench

In addition to source code files and other text documents, AcuBench's print function allows you to print hard copies of screen forms, report forms, and the contents of the Output window. Select File > Print or click the Print icon on the Standard toolbar. This opens a standard Windows print dialog that allows you to select a printer, specify a page range, and so on.

Use the AcuBench File > Print Setup command to change printers, select an output tray, change paper orientation, and so on. Like the Print dialog, the Print Setup dialog is a standard Windows interface.

When you print a text file, rather than a screen or report form, you can use the File > Page Setup command to customize the appearance of the printed page, including the header and footer, if any. This command opens a Page Setup dialog box that also allows you to specify a page style, margin sizes, and other options.

The Header and Footer fields of the of the Page Setup dialog box can take a text string or any of the special options described in the following table. You can either manually enter the code for any of the special options, or click the arrow button to the right of the field and select an option from the pop-up list.

Option	Description
Full Path Filename &U	Prints the full path and file name in the header or footer
Filename &F	Prints the file name in the header or footer
Page Number &P	Prints the page number in the header or footer
Current Time &T	Prints the time the document was printed in the header or footer
Current Date &D	Prints the date the document was printed in the header or footer
Left Align &L	Prints the header in a left alignment or footer
Center &C	Prints the header in a center alignment or footer
Right Align &R	Prints the header in a right alignment or footer

You can also set the following additional options to determine the appearance of your print output:
