TPrinterCanvas.TopMargin property
The size of the margin at the top of the canvas.
Declaration
property TopMargin: Integer read GetTopMargin write FTopMargin;Description
TopMargin is an
Integer property which contains the
size for the area between the edge of the paper and the top of the content on
the page. Margin values are expressed as the number of "Dots" for the native
printer resolution (
YDPI). To achieve a .5in margin on a 300DPI
laser printer, use the value
150.
The value for the property is normally provided by the Printer
using the canvas to render document pages. When the property contains
0 (zero) and the Printer is assigned, its PaperRect
property is examined to get the Top of the printable area for the
paper size. Otherwise, the existing value in the property is used.
Changes to the property value are not applied to the Printer device.
Use BottomMargin for the unused area at the bottom edge of the
canvas. Values in TopMargin, BottomMargin, and PaperHeight are
used to calculate the PageHeight for the printer canvas.
