Class PrintDefaults

java.lang.Object

com.qoppa.pdf.PrintDefaults

public class PrintDefaults
extends Object

This class is used to store and restore printer defaults across application sessions. The print defaults are only used in the Qoppa print dialog. When a user prints any documents, they might change the printer settings. This class keeps track of the printer settings for all different printers and then provides a method to get current settings in XML format. The host application can then store these settings and then restore them using the same XML string.
