I am using PrintPreviewDia log to preview a file. There is a button that the
user can press, which seems to print the file to the default printer. I would
like to capture a click on that button so that I can present a PrintDialog,
print some files in a special way, etc. But there does not seem to be an
event among the PrintPreviewDia log members to do this? Or perhaps I missed
it? I would appreciate any suggestions. Thanks.

PrintPreviewDia log is strangely a closed architecture. It's terribly
difficult to inherit from it and change its behaviour. I wanted to do
the same thing you've done, and I saw only two options:
1. Create my own PrintPreviewDia log. After all, PrintPreviewDia log is
just a PrintPreviewCon trol wrapped in a window with some buttons on it.
In fact, I have no idea why the folks at Microsoft just didn't publish
the code to PrintPreviewDia log and open it wide up, since it's probably
just a couple of hundred lines of code. Nonetheless, it seemed a lot of
work.
2. I inherited from PrintPreviewDia log and added a File menu with a
Print option. _that_ option brings up the print dialog. If the user
hits the printer button it still just prints to the default printer.
That's what I thought, but I could not really believe it was so. I was going
to use a PrintPreviewCon trol, but then I would have to write the other
buttons, I assume. But it sounds like that is the best choice. Thanks for the
help.

Hello all,
I'm trying to print using PrintPreviewDialog. What's happening is that the
PrintPreviewDialog shows the correct information to be printed, but when I
click the print icon, it prints a blank page. If I comment out the
printPreviewDialog1.ShowDialog();
and just do a
printDocument1.Print();
instead, it prints all the pages like a champ. Anyone know what I'm doing
wrong?
Thanks

Moreover, what happens before the document gets displayed in PrintPreviewDialog, i.e. whether entire document gets copied in printer driver spool or only 1 or 2 pages?
please guide

It displays my RichTextBox contents correctly, but when I click on the Print

How can I fix this to print the text that is being displayed?
Here is the code I use to bring up the form:

Hi all,
I've got a problem with a PrintPreviewDialog. It shows my document correctly
but when I try to print I only get the last page. Now when I use the print
function of my document directly it print's correctly. I've overriden the
OnPrintPage function of PrintDocument and for as far as I can see I've
correctly set he HasMorePages property.
Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this, or what I'm forgetting.

Hello,
Is there a way to call a printDialog from a printPreviewDialog (from print
icon for example)?
Indeed, the print icon in the printpreviewdialog prints directly the
document without lunching the printdialog (i.e. the user can't choose the
print parameters).
Thanks a lot.

I customized a PrintPreviewDialog by adding a button to it's toolstrip
that opens up a PageSetupDialog. The problem is changes made to the
page setup are not passed to the PrintPreviewDialog until I close and
reload it.
How do I enable these changes to immediately show up in the print

I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
