Hi.
Does this help?
VB Code:
Private Declare Function CreateDC Lib "gdi32" Alias "CreateDCA" (ByVal lpDriverName As String, ByVal lpDeviceName As String, ByVal lpOutput As String, ByVal lpInitData As String) As Integer Private Declare Function CreateCompatibleDC Lib "GDI32" (ByVal hDC As Integer) As Integer Private Declare Function CreateCompatibleBitmap Lib "GDI32" (ByVal hDC As Integer, ByVal nWidth As Integer, ByVal nHeight As Integer) As Integer Private Declare Function GetDeviceCaps Lib "gdi32" Alias "GetDeviceCaps" (ByVal hdc As Integer, ByVal nIndex As Integer) As Integer Private Declare Function SelectObject Lib "GDI32" (ByVal hDC As Integer, ByVal hObject As Integer) As Integer Private Declare Function BitBlt Lib "GDI32" (ByVal srchDC As Integer, ByVal srcX As Integer, ByVal srcY As Integer, ByVal srcW As Integer, ByVal srcH As Integer, ByVal desthDC As Integer, ByVal destX As Integer, ByVal destY As Integer, ByVal op As Integer) As Integer Private Declare Function DeleteDC Lib "GDI32" (ByVal hDC As Integer) As Integer Private Declare Function DeleteObject Lib "GDI32" (ByVal hObj As Integer) As Integer Private WithEvents pDoc As Printing.PrintDocument Private bFormImage As Bitmap Private Sub PrintForm() bFormImage = Me.GetFormImage pDoc = New Printing.PrintDocument() Dim pp As New PrintPreviewDialog() pp.Document = pDoc pp.ShowDialog(Me) End Sub Private Function GetFormImage() As Bitmap Dim FW, FH As Integer Dim hSDC, hMDC As Integer Dim hBMP, hBMPOld As Integer Dim r As Integer hSDC = CreateDC("DISPLAY", "", "", "") hMDC = CreateCompatibleDC(hSDC) FW = Me.Width FH = Me.Height hBMP = CreateCompatibleBitmap(hSDC, FW, FH) hBMPOld = SelectObject(hMDC, hBMP) r = BitBlt(hMDC, 0, 0, FW, FH, hSDC, Me.Left, Me.Top, 13369376) hBMP = SelectObject(hMDC, hBMPOld) r = DeleteDC(hSDC) r = DeleteDC(hMDC) hSDC = Nothing hMDC = Nothing r = Nothing Return Bitmap.FromHbitmap(New IntPtr(hBMP)) DeleteObject(hBMP) End Function Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Me.PrintForm() End Sub Private Sub pDoc_PrintPage(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs) Handles pDoc.PrintPage 'Draw Stretched 'e.Graphics.DrawImage(bFormImage, e.MarginBounds.Left, e.MarginBounds.Top, e.MarginBounds.Width, e.MarginBounds.Height) 'Draw Normal e.Graphics.DrawImage(bFormImage, e.MarginBounds.Left, e.MarginBounds.Top, bFormImage.Width, bFormImage.Height) e.HasMorePages = False End Sub
i know that there is an easier way to do that... got any idea?
