DeviceRenderingInfo

dictionary

AutoMediaType is a boolean that controls the MediaType entries in the

(continued)

 

InputAttributes dictionary in the pagedevice dictionary.

 

 

True

MediaType entries in the InputAttributes dictionaries cannot be

 

 

 

modified by the user. The values are confined to values known by

 

 

 

the printer operating system.

 

 

False

MediaType entries in the InputAttributes dictionaries can be

 

 

 

modified by the user.

 

 

EdgeToEdge is a boolean which determines if there should be an unprintable

 

 

area on the page.

 

 

 

True

Print to the edge of the paper.

 

 

False

Do not print to the edge of the paper (default).

 

 

DefaultPoliciesPageSize is an integer which equals the PageSize parameter in

 

 

the Policies dictionary unless PageSize is set to 23; in that case,

 

 

DefaultPoliciesPageSize equals the PageSize parameter value before it was set

 

 

to 23 or equals 0 if the PageSize parameter is initialized to 23. For more

 

 

information on PageSize, see page 4-72.

 

 

SubstituteSize allows for the substitution of A4- and Letter-size print materials,

 

 

and A3- and 11x17 inch-size print materials for each other when one size is not

 

 

installed.

 

 

 

 

Note: For size substitution to occur, the substituted print material and the

 

 

requested print material must be of the same paper type.

 

 

The following values are supported:

 

 

/Off

 

No size substitution is performed.

 

 

/A4-Letter

 

If A4 is requested but not installed and Letter is installed, Letter

 

 

 

 

is substituted for A4. Or, if Letter is requested but not installed

 

 

 

 

and A4 is installed, A4 is substituted for Letter.

 

 

/A3-11x17

If A3 is requested but not installed and 11x17 is installed,

 

 

 

 

11x17 is substituted for A3. Or, if 11x17 is requested but not

 

 

 

 

installed and A3 is installed, A3 is substituted for 11x17.

 

 

/All

 

Both size substitutions are permitted.

 

 

Note: When the size substitution occurs, the page is scaled to the size of the

 

 

requested print material.

 

 

The DefaultPoliciesPageSize value is used as the effective policy when:

 

 

• The SubstituteSize parameter is not set to /Off and a size substitution cannot

 

 

be performed.

 

 

 

• The PageSize parameter in the Policies dictionary is set to 23.

 

 

Notes:

 

 

 

 

• If SubstituteSize is set to /Off, the effective policy is the value of PageSize.

 

 

• If SubstituteSize is not set to /Off and a size substitution is possible, the

 

 

effective policy is 3.
