NAME

       ppd_get_page_length,  ppd_get_page_size,  ppd_get_page_width  -  set of
       functions for retrieving the page dimension from a PPD file.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <ppd.h>

       float ppd_get_page_length(PpdFile *ppd, const char *name);

       PpdSize *ppd_get_page_size(PpdFile *ppd, const char *name);

       float ppd_get_page_width(PpdFile *ppd, const char *name);

DESCRIPTION

       These function provide the programmer with  a  means  of  querying  the
       dimensions  of  a  given  page  layout  within  a  PPD file.  All three
       function accept two parameters as input.  The first is a pointer  to  a
       valid  PpdFile  structure  (see ppd_file_new(3)), and the second if the
       name of the page layout to be queried.

RETURN VALUE

       ppd_get_page_length()
              Returns the page length for a given layout

       ppd_get_page_size()
              Returns a pointer to the page size record for the given size

       ppd_get_page_width()
              Returns the page width for a given layout
