SetPdfPrintMode function

Component: TPdf · Unit: PDFium

Selects the print backend used by FPDF_RenderPage when feeding the platform printer

Syntax

function SetPdfPrintMode(PrintMode: TPdfPrintMode): Boolean;

Description

Selects the print backend used by FPDF_RenderPage when feeding the platform printer

Default is prEmf on Windows; use prPostScript* on PostScript devices to avoid double-rasterization

Wraps the corresponding PDFium API and exposes it as a TPdf instance member so consumers do not have to manage FPDF_DOCUMENT handles directly

Remarks

Always check Pdf1.Active before calling page-scoped operations; methods that require an open document raise EPdfError otherwise
Document-edit methods (AddPage / DeletePage / UpdatePage / CreateAnnotation) leave the in-memory document dirty — remember to call SaveAs to persist
Class methods (LoadLibrary / UnloadLibrary / GetRecommendedV8Flags) can be called without a TPdf instance

Example

begin
TPdf.SetPdfPrintMode;
end;
