71 @class wxPageSetupDialog
72 @wxheader{printdlg.h}
73
74 This class represents the page setup common dialog. In MSW, the page setup
75 dialog is standard from Windows 95 on, replacing the print setup dialog (which
76 is retained in Windows and wxWidgets for backward compatibility).
77 On Windows 95 and NT 4.0 and above, the page setup dialog is native to the windowing
78 system, otherwise it is emulated.
79
80 The page setup dialog contains controls for paper size (A4, A5 etc.),
81 orientation (landscape or portrait), and controls for setting left, top, right
82 and bottom margin sizes in millimetres.
83
84 On Macintosh, the native page setup dialog is used, which lets you select paper
85 size and orientation but it does not let you change the page margins.
86
87 On other platforms, a generic dialog is used.
88
89 When the dialog has been closed, you need to query the wxPageSetupDialogData
90 object associated with the dialog.
91
92 Note that the OK and Cancel buttons do not destroy the dialog; this must be done
93 by the application.
