shrink to fit need help quick

[Nikki_W]

I have a bunch of forms with a print button, works just great.  However a few people

have printers that are cutting off the top and bottom and they want the default to be shrink to fit since many of the users of the form are older and can't understand how to change the fit on the print dialogue box.  I found in my Bible a javascr

ipt but I'm not getting it to work.

click*

topmostSubform.Page2.PrintButton1::click - (JavaScript, client)
this.print ({bShrinkToFit: true});

I couldn't find where I could control it elsewhere

Thanks Kevin, it worked great. Only 100 plus forms to change running both through LiveCycle and then opening in Acrobat to extend users rights.
