Using System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument in WPF
I have a WPF application and I use external library for generating documents. This library returns document as System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument. How can I print this document in WPF? I can use Print() method directly, but I need to allow user to select printer and settings. If I use WPF PrintDocument dialog, I can't set m开发者_开发技巧y document to it as in WinForms dialog.Document. Is there a way to convert old PrintDocument to some WPF friendly form?
WinForms way:
// get document for printing
PrintDocument document = exporter.GetPrintDocument();
System.Windows.Forms.PrintDialog dialog = new System.Windows.Forms.PrintDialog();
dialog.Document = document;
if (dialog.ShowDialog() == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK)
{
document.Print();
}
WPF way:
System.Windows.Controls.PrintDialog dialog = new System.Windows.Controls.PrintDialog();
if (dialog.ShowDialog() == true)
{
// how to print old PrintDocument???
dialog.PrintDocument(...);
}
I also tried to open WinForms dialog in WPF but it is not possible. Dialog is just not shown.
Thanks for any help.
I found an answer. You have to set UseDialogEx
dialog property to true
.
MessageBox.Show(printDialog1.PrinterSettings.PrinterName);
printDialog1.PrinterSettings.PrintFileName = "A.txt";
MessageBox.Show(printDialog1.PrinterSettings.PrintFileName);
printDialog1.ShowDialog();
printDocument1.DocumentName = "A.txt";
if (printDialog1.ShowDialog() == System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult.OK)
{
printDocument1.Print();
}
