I'm trying to get information about printing margins so my app can
show where the edges of the paper are correctly as well as the content
area.
I thought that's what NSPrintInfo methods such as -topMargin gave me -
the margins set by the Page Setup... dialog. But they never change no

More Info. If I do this:
- (void)setPrintInfo:(NSPrintInfo*) printInfo
{
[super setPrintInfo:printInfo];
PMPageFormatpmf = (PMPageFormat)[printInfo PMPageFormat];
PMPaper paper;
OSStatuserr = PMGetPageFormatPaper( pmf, &paper );
Graham,
I'm not sure if this is exactly what you were talking about, but I did a test
in the printShowingPrintPanel of a program I'd written.
The NSPrintInfo methods setLeftMargin, setBottomMargin, setRightMargin and
setTopMargin all affect the margin values within the NSPrintInfo instance.

Thanks Joel, certainly setting the margins directly does work. What
I'm left wondering is what they are actually for - they are never set
by he Page Setup panel and never change with changes to paper size,
printer, etc.
My conclusion is that these fields are merely a convenience for

Don't you want NSPrintInfo - (NSRect)imageablePageBounds ?
