Using printer presets
To print a document using a printer preset, include the printer preset in the print method:
//PrintDocumentWithPreset.jsx
//An InDesign CS2 JavaScript
//Prints the active document using the specified printer preset.
//Assumes you have a printer preset named "myPreset" and that a document is open.
app.activeDocument.print(false, app.printerPresets.item("myPreset"));
Creating printer presets from printing preferences
To create a printer preset from the print preferences of a document:
//CreatePrinterPreset.jsx
//An InDesign CS2 JavaScript
//Creates a new printer preset.
//If the preset does not already exist, then create it;
//otherwise, fill in the properties of the existing preset.
var myPreset;
myPreset = app.printerPresets.item("myPreset");
try{
myPreset.name;
}
catch(myError){
myPreset = app.printerPresets.add({name:"myPreset"});
}
with(app.activeDocument.printPreferences){
//Because many printing properties are dependent on other printing properties,
//we’ve surrounded each property-setting line with try...catch statements--
//these will make it easier for you to experiment with print preset settings.
try{
myPreset.printer = printer;
}
catch(e){}
try{
myPreset.ppd = ppd;
}
catch(e){}
try{
myPreset.copies = copies;
}
