PARAMETERS
printSettings
A PMPrintSettings object previously created by your application. This function uses the information in this object to create a Printing Manager print record.
pageFormat
A PMPageFormat object previously created by your application. This function uses the information in this object to create a Printing Manager print record.

DISCUSSION
The PMMakeOldPrintRecord supplies 120-byte print record to work with a current version of the printer driver. This provides your application with a way to get an old-style print record to store with a document that may be shared with old versions of the application. Because the new PMPrintSettings and PMPageFormat objects are a super-set of the old-style print record, there may be new features available with the new PMPrintSettings and PMPageFormat which would not be enabled with the old-style print record.
