Hello Jennifer,
Thank you very much for the review of this fix. For reproduction of this
bug and testing of the fix the printer "PrimoPDF" with its driver
"PrimoPDF" was used. This printer is a virtual printer which generates
PDF files as a result of printing jobs and which can be downloaded at
the URL (http://www.primopdf.com). Such a printer was selected for
testing, because it supports the paper size "11 x 17" in inches, with
which the bug was experienced by a user according to the bug report.
Also I was able to observe a similar situation with the printers:
"Microsoft XPS Document Writer", "Xerox WorkCentre 4250 GPD PS" but on
paper sizes different from "11 x 17". For example, if the printer "Xerox
WorkCentre 4250 GPD PS" is used, JDK interprets the paper size "Postcard
(100 x 148 mm)" as "Postcard (JIS)" and, when algorithm of the method
"sun.print.Win32PrintService.getMediaSizes" encounters the paper size
"Japanese Postcard", it interprets it as "Postcard (JIS)" again, which
leaves just one media size "Postcard (JIS)" from 2 in Java
cross-platform Page Setup and Print dialogs. I think that this situation
is similar to the case with "11 x 17" paper size, because some user can
also be willing to see exactly "Postcard (100 x 148 mm)" media size in
the mentioned Java dialogs, where it will be absent, whoever this fix
still will not allow "Postcard (100 x 148 mm)" to be displayed.
Thank you,
Anton

Hi Anton,
What printer and printer driver version did you use to test your fix?
Thanks.

The bug consists in the fact that Java cross-platform Page Setup
and Print dialogs do not always list all media sizes supported by a
printer. The fix is based on addition of dynamic creation of new
media names of the type "sun.print.Win32MediaSize" based on paper
names received from Windows API function with corresponding media
sizes of the type "javax.print.attribute.standard.MediaSize" for
the case, when the printer's media size name, which is being
analyzed in "sun.print.Win32PrintService.initMedia" method, is not
added to the final list of media sizes supported by the printer
because of an already existing duplicate in that list. In such a
case the printer's paper size matches with one of the media sizes
registered in JDK, while the paper size ID does not match with any
ID known to JDK.
Also the code in "Win32PrintService.findWin32Media" method was
altered to allow three cases from "switch" block to work as
expected, because currently they never match with "dmIndex" value,
since it is always less then "dmPaperToPrintService.length" under
"if" statement.
Thank you,
Anton
