Constant Detail

### AUTO

Automatic selection of the best method of printing. This value indicates that vector or bitmap printing is chosen automatically, based on the content to print. Vector printing is used whenever the content can be faithfully reproduced by that method. If transparency or certain other effects are present, bitmap printing is used instead.

This constant is used with the `PrintJobOptions.printMethod` property. Use the syntax `PrintMethod.AUTO`.
