Detailed Description

This class provides very simple interface to printing architecture.

It allows you to print HTML documents using only a few commands.

Note
Do not create this class on the stack only. You should create an instance on app startup and use this instance for all printing operations. The reason is that this class stores various settings in it.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

◆ wxHtmlEasyPrinting()

wxHtmlEasyPrinting::wxHtmlEasyPrinting ( const wxString name = "Printing",
wxWindow parentWindow = NULL 
)

Constructor.

Parameters
nameName of the printing object. Used by preview frames and setup dialogs.
parentWindowpointer to the window that will own the preview frame and setup dialogs. May be NULL.

Member Function Documentation

◆ CheckFit()

virtual bool wxHtmlEasyPrinting::CheckFit ( const wxSize pageArea,
const wxSize docArea 
) const
privatevirtual

Check whether the document fits into the page area.

This function is called by the base class OnPreparePrinting() implementation and by default checks whether the document fits into pageArea horizontally and warns the user if it does not, giving him the possibility to cancel printing in this case (presumably in order to change some layout options and retry it again).

You may override it to either suppress this check if truncation of the HTML being printed is acceptable or, on the contrary, add more checks to it, e.g. for the fit in the vertical direction if the document should always appear on a single page.

Returns
true if wxHtmlPrintout should continue or false to cancel printing.
Since
2.9.0
