abortPrint
Abort an in-progress print job.
abortPrint()
This function aborts the currently in-progress print job.
This function can be used in two different ways. It can be called from
within the printStatus
event handler, typically in response to the
user clicking a "cancel" button. After abortPrint is called, the
print job will be canceled, and the original printing function
(printPDF4
, for example) will throw an error.
It can also be called when using the print job API. In this case it
should be called in place of the finishJob
function. The print job
will be canceled, and you will need to call startJob
to begin a
new print job before you can call printToJob
again.
VB:
Private Sub pdf_printStatus(nextPage As Long, firstPage As Long, lastPage As Long) Handles pdf.printStatus
If nextPage <= lastPage Then
' about to print "nextPage"
Else
' all done printing
End If
If .... the user pressed the cancel button .... Then
pdf.abortPrint()
End If
End Sub
