Explanation
The IKSaveDevModeHandle function saves the handle to the DEVMODE structure into the file specified by the PrintFileName parameter. The file format of the file is the same as that saved by the IKSetPrint function. The saved file can be used by the IKGetDevModeHandle, IKGetDevModeHandleEx, IKPrintCreateDC, IKPrintCreateDCEx, and the IKSetPrint functions. For more information about the DEVMODE structure, please refer to WindowsAPI or related manuals.
