Graphics - > Printer Object

[TheLeeMan]

I would like to add a feature into an application I have created that would print graphics (mostly jpg's) to the default printer. I would like (though it's not neccessary) to be able to resize the graphic so it is centered and a specific size that the user specifies. Is there any way to do this?

As always, Thanks in advance!

you can use the paintpicture method of a form or picturebox to print it.

e.g

form1.PaintPicture printer, x1, y1, width1, height1, x2, y2, width2, height2, opcode

change the destination size too flip or stretch/shrink the picture (x2,y2)

when you have painted all your pictures to the printer

use

Printer.EndDoc

to print your page

(Thanks NeilAvent)

Just for future refrence and for others who view the post, the correct syntax would be as follows (to print image1)

[b]Printer.PaintPicture Image1, 1, 1, Image1.Width, Image1.Height[b]

The height and width can be tweaked to change printed image size and the 1, 1 is the upper left position of the picture on the page.
