Product Description

PowerTeam's printing component is an extension of Microsoft's TEMPLATEPRINTER binary bahavior that comes built in with Internet Explorer. It allows web developers to exercise fine control of the printing environment - regardles of the default browser or printer settings. It works transparently supporting all the functionality of the base component - and also providing rich features set needed for web applications. In particular, it allows web designers to set up destination printer, header, footer, margins, orientation, paper source, type , size, duplex options, etc. even without use of print templates.

For those who need to provide advanced customized form printing we provide "construction set" for building print templates. We include set of reusable components that can be placed within your own print templates to provide "common" functionality - print preview toolbar, rulers, stylesheets, etc. We also provide set of generic print templates that you can use as a starting point.

Component targets following types of applications:
- Standalone applications like Qicken or Microsoft Money that host browser or run downloaded HTML applications (localhost and "file system" security zone)
- Corporate intranet for business weblications ( intranet and "trusted sites" security zone). We also offer optional setup module that can be executed by system administrators if the company policy prohibits download of binary components.
- Enterprise applications were the control runs on Internet or complex web with all types of security zones. Secirity of "trusted" printing component has to be enforced by client's enterprise code signing certificate and/or restricted list of sites that are "trusted" to use the functionality.
