Procedura: Stampare in Windows Form usando l'anteprima di stampa
Nella programmazione windows Form è molto comune offrire un'anteprima di stampa oltre ai servizi di stampa. Un modo semplice per aggiungere servizi di anteprima di stampa all'applicazione consiste nell'usare un controllo PrintPreviewDialog in combinazione con la logica di gestione degli eventi PrintPage per la stampa di un file.
Per visualizzare in anteprima un documento di testo con un controllo PrintPreviewDialog
Aggiungi PrintPreviewDialog, PrintDocumente due stringhe al tuo modulo.
private PrintPreviewDialog printPreviewDialog1 = new PrintPreviewDialog(); private PrintDocument printDocument1 = new PrintDocument(); // Declare a string to hold the entire document contents. private string documentContents; // Declare a variable to hold the portion of the document that // is not printed. private string stringToPrint;
Private printPreviewDialog1 As New PrintPreviewDialog() Private WithEvents printDocument1 As New PrintDocument() ' Declare a string to hold the entire document contents. Private documentContents As String ' Declare a variable to hold the portion of the document that ' is not printed. Private stringToPrint As String
Imposta la proprietà DocumentName al documento che desideri stampare e apri il documento, leggendo il suo contenuto nella stringa precedentemente aggiunta.
private void ReadDocument() { string docName = "testPage.txt"; string docPath = @"c:\"; printDocument1.DocumentName = docName; using (FileStream stream = new FileStream(docPath + docName, FileMode.Open)) using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream)) { documentContents = reader.ReadToEnd(); } stringToPrint = documentContents; }
Private Sub ReadDocument() Dim docName As String = "testPage.txt" Dim docPath As String = "c:\" printDocument1.DocumentName = docName Dim stream As New FileStream(docPath + docName, FileMode.Open) Try Dim reader As New StreamReader(stream) Try documentContents = reader.ReadToEnd() Finally reader.Dispose() End Try Finally stream.Dispose() End Try stringToPrint = documentContents End Sub
Come si farebbe per stampare il documento, nel gestore eventi PrintPage utilizzare la proprietà Graphics della classe PrintPageEventArgs e il contenuto del file per calcolare le righe per pagina ed eseguire il rendering del contenuto del documento. Dopo aver disegnato ogni pagina, verificare se è l'ultima pagina e impostare di conseguenza la proprietà HasMorePages del PrintPageEventArgs. L'evento PrintPage viene generato fino a quando HasMorePages è
false
. Quando il documento ha terminato il rendering, reimposta la stringa da rendere. Assicurarsi inoltre che l'evento PrintPage sia associato al relativo metodo di gestione degli eventi.Nota
È possibile che siano già stati completati i passaggi 2 e 3 se è stata implementata la stampa nell'applicazione.
Nell'esempio di codice seguente il gestore eventi viene usato per stampare il file "testPage.txt" nello stesso tipo di carattere utilizzato nel modulo.
void printDocument1_PrintPage(object sender, PrintPageEventArgs e) { int charactersOnPage = 0; int linesPerPage = 0; // Sets the value of charactersOnPage to the number of characters // of stringToPrint that will fit within the bounds of the page. e.Graphics.MeasureString(stringToPrint, this.Font, e.MarginBounds.Size, StringFormat.GenericTypographic, out charactersOnPage, out linesPerPage); // Draws the string within the bounds of the page. e.Graphics.DrawString(stringToPrint, this.Font, Brushes.Black, e.MarginBounds, StringFormat.GenericTypographic); // Remove the portion of the string that has been printed. stringToPrint = stringToPrint.Substring(charactersOnPage); // Check to see if more pages are to be printed. e.HasMorePages = (stringToPrint.Length > 0); // If there are no more pages, reset the string to be printed. if (!e.HasMorePages) stringToPrint = documentContents; }
Sub printDocument1_PrintPage(ByVal sender As Object, _ ByVal e As PrintPageEventArgs) Handles printDocument1.PrintPage Dim charactersOnPage As Integer = 0 Dim linesPerPage As Integer = 0 ' Sets the value of charactersOnPage to the number of characters ' of stringToPrint that will fit within the bounds of the page. e.Graphics.MeasureString(stringToPrint, Me.Font, e.MarginBounds.Size, _ StringFormat.GenericTypographic, charactersOnPage, linesPerPage) ' Draws the string within the bounds of the page. e.Graphics.DrawString(stringToPrint, Me.Font, Brushes.Black, _ e.MarginBounds, StringFormat.GenericTypographic) ' Remove the portion of the string that has been printed. stringToPrint = stringToPrint.Substring(charactersOnPage) ' Check to see if more pages are to be printed. e.HasMorePages = stringToPrint.Length > 0 ' If there are no more pages, reset the string to be printed. If Not e.HasMorePages Then stringToPrint = documentContents End If End Sub
Impostare la proprietà Document del controllo PrintPreviewDialog sul componente PrintDocument nel form.
printPreviewDialog1.Document = printDocument1;
printPreviewDialog1.Document = printDocument1
Chiamare il metodo ShowDialog nel controllo PrintPreviewDialog. In genere si chiama ShowDialog dal metodo di gestione degli eventi Click di un pulsante. Chiamando ShowDialog genera l'evento PrintPage e visualizza l'output sul controllo PrintPreviewDialog. Quando l'utente fa clic sull'icona di stampa nella finestra di dialogo, l'evento PrintPage viene generato nuovamente, inviando l'output alla stampante anziché alla finestra di dialogo di anteprima. Ecco perché la stringa viene reimpostata alla fine del processo di rendering nel passaggio 3.
Nell'esempio di codice seguente viene illustrato il metodo di gestione degli eventi Click per un pulsante nel modulo. Questo metodo di gestione degli eventi chiama i metodi per leggere il documento e visualizzare la finestra di dialogo anteprima di stampa.
private void printPreviewButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { ReadDocument(); printPreviewDialog1.Document = printDocument1; printPreviewDialog1.ShowDialog(); }
Private Sub printPreviewButton_Click(ByVal sender As Object, _ ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles printPreviewButton.Click ReadDocument() printPreviewDialog1.Document = printDocument1 printPreviewDialog1.ShowDialog() End Sub
