           Summary: page preferences set from print dialog
lost
           Product: Batik
           Version: 2.0
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows XP
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Bridge
        AssignedTo: batik-devxmlgraphics.apache.org
        ReportedBy: ctl271mail.usask.ca


Sorry - I wasn't sure which Component to open this in. 
I've noticed what I 
think may be a logic error in the print method of
PrintTranscoder - of course, 
it may also be the intended behaviour.  However, if so, I
found it somewhat 
unexpected.

I'm using the PrintTranscoder to print an SVG document.  I
set the 
PrintTranscoder.KEY_SHOW_PRINTER_DIALOG transcoding hint to
get the printer 
dialog.  This shows the native printer dialog for my system,
and from there I 
can get to the page preferences.  If I toggle the
orientation to landscape, 
this change does not get applied because it get's
overridden by the value from 
the PageFormat specified with the printable after the
PrinterDialog is closed.

If changed from: 
	        //
	        // If required, pop up a dialog to select the
printer
	        //
	        Boolean showPrinterDialog = (Boolean)hints.get
(KEY_SHOW_PRINTER_DIALOG);
	        if(showPrinterDialog != null &&
showPrinterDialog.booleanValue
()){
	            if(!printerJob.printDialog()){
	                // Dialog was cancelled, meaning that the
print process
	                // should be stopped.
	                return;
	            }
	        }

	        // Print now
	        printerJob.setPrintable(this, pageFormat);
	        printerJob.print();

to: 
	        // Print now
	        printerJob.setPrintable(this, pageFormat);

	        //
	        // If required, pop up a dialog to select the
printer
	        //
	        Boolean showPrinterDialog = (Boolean)hints.get
(KEY_SHOW_PRINTER_DIALOG);
	        if(showPrinterDialog != null &&
showPrinterDialog.booleanValue
()){
	            if(!printerJob.printDialog()){
	                // Dialog was cancelled, meaning that the
print process
	                // should be stopped.
	                return;
	            }
	        }

	        printerJob.print();

changes made to the PageFormat from the PrintDialog are
applied, which is what 
I would expect to happen.  However, perhaps there are
reasons I haven't 
thought of that make this undesirable?
