Save As PCL Suggestions

Hello. I have a few suggestions when writing PCL files.
NEEDED:

- Specify paper size: e.g. A4 (ESC &l26A) (optionally specify input tray - should default to auto = 0)
- Specify orientation: e.g. Portrait/Landscape

OPTIONAL:

- Duplex mode printing: long-side and short-side binding.

E.g. simplex -> ESC &l0S
long side duplex -> ESC &l1S
Short side duplex -> ESC &l2S

- Some additional options (staple, punch, et cetera). Difficult to implement. We are probably talking using PJL Job commands here (not sure).

It could be also cool if some page layout would be shown on screen before generating the file.

Thanks in advance. XnView is great.

I forgot to add that PCL should support multi-pages too.
