[mapguide-users] Print Layout - 2 questions...

[Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S]

To the best of my knowledge, Print Layouts are only avalible when used 
with the DWF viewer.
I am, as always, happy to be corrected, should I be wrong.

Printing features in the AJAX viewer are basically a template HTML page 
with placeholders for the map and legend.
You can modify printablepage.templ to issue site wide changes.

You can usually ask any question you want here, but you cannot expect a 
reply.
I assume you can expect a reply on the Autodesk pages, if you paid for 
Autodesk support.

Regards, Kenneth Skovhede, GEOGRAF A/S
