I am reading from a text file and then printing the string using printdocument via vb.net 2010.
Here is my code :
Public Class myPrinter
Friend TextToBePrinted As String
Public Sub prt(ByVal text As String)
Dim psize As New System.Drawing.Printing.PaperSize("Custom Paper Size", 850, 550)
Dim newMargins As New System.Drawing.Printing.Margins(0, 0, 0, 0)
TextToBePrinted = text
Dim prn As New Printing.PrintDocument
Using (prn)
prn.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = frmStockOut.printer
prn.PrinterSettings.Copies = frmStockOut.copies
prn.PrinterSettings.DefaultPageSettings.PaperSize = psize
prn.PrinterSettings.DefaultPageSettings.Margins = newMargins
prn.DefaultPageSettings.PaperSize = psize
prn.DefaultPageSettings.Margins = newMargins
AddHandler prn.PrintPage, _
AddressOf Me.PrintPageHandler
prn.Print()
RemoveHandler prn.PrintPage, _
AddressOf Me.PrintPageHandler
End Using
End Sub
Private Sub PrintPageHandler(ByVal sender As Object, _
ByVal args As Printing.PrintPageEventArgs)
Dim myFont As New Font("Courier New", 11)
args.Graphics.DrawString(TextToBePrinted, _
New Font(myFont, FontStyle.Regular), _
Brushes.Black, 50, 50)
End Sub
End Class
Private Sub PrintDocument1_PrintPage(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Drawing.Printing.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
End Sub
Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
ReadFile() ' will read text file and store in a string
Dim Print As New myPrinter
Dim myprintdialog As New PrintDialog
With myprintdialog
If .ShowDialog = Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK Then
printer = .PrinterSettings.PrinterName
copies = .PrinterSettings.Copies
Print.prt(stringToPrint)
End If
End With
End Sub
The problem is even after I set the left margin and top margin to 0, it seems nothing has changed, it is still printing almost 3/4 inch for top margins and 1 inch for the left margin. This is also the output when I didn't set the margins. However, when I prn.OriginAtMargins = True , the output becomes a little different, left margin is now almost 1/2 inch but top margin remains the same. Something wrong with my code?
What I want to accomplish is the top margin can be set at approximately 20 pixels (assuming 100 pixels is equal to 1 inch) and left margin be set at 20 pixels too. Hope somebody can help me.
