Pete,

 

I guess, I don't understand the definition of OrientationRequest.   I
don't seem to understand your definition of "built-in orientation".
Isn't it the "output requested orientation" of the job (/document/page)?
I interpret your comments as it being a capability of the printer and it
appears in the PJT as a confirmation that the job is "oriented as
requested".

 

Glen

Glen, 

It should be required.  All printers MUST apply this attribute to
document formats that don't have a built-in orientation.  Support of
this attribute  is implementation dependent for the for document formats
that do have a built-in orientation.  The standard mechanisms in place
for handling unsupported or conflicting attributes apply.

Pete (others),

 

Should OrientationRequested be Conditionally Required?   A
printer/print-service may not have resourced (memory) to execute
changing a portrait formatted document to a landscape. 

 

I am not even sure, as a Job ticket element, the addition of "Requested"
is correct.   I would think PrintOrientation is more representative of a
job ticket specified item.

 

Glen
