PrinterData doesn't support paper configuration.

So, even when my users design their content with WYSISYG editor which has some specific pre-defined paper,
they have to configure printer settings again through PrinterDialog before print.

So I'm trying to hack PrinterData#otherData field with Win32 DEVMODE struct.
And this approach makes me really sick.

Any Idea?

Hi,

Are you looking for a way to set the papersize/type through PrinterData? Currently there is no API to do this. Please see this bug --> https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=96394.
