Introduction
In order to maintain a good print result of the gray lines used in the background we have implemented to alternative print methods. These options are available in the lower left corner of the Print dialog.
The second column gives you the numeric
constants to use if you wish to call
these types from within your code and
you cannot use the type library
delivered with the Active X object.

Gray colors are printed as gray and the printer will do it's own conversion. This mode means that the
light gray lines are sometimes translated into dotted lines of different widths. In some cases the lines may even disappear completely. The
light gray lines may even come out as solid black. HP printers are particularly difficult with this option set to Default. |

With this option set the growth chart
component will do the translation of light
gray into a B&W pattern which looks like
light gray. The advantage of this mode over the Dotted is that the background appears somewhat lighter. |

With this option set light gray lines will be printed using equally sized dots, approximately 0.5 mm long. This is the mode used by the original paper growth charts provided by Socialstyrelsen. |
