After you create your
IlvPrintableDocument, you will have to create an instance of
IlvPrintingController
,
a high-level class that manages the document to print and the preview
frame. Then you can perform various actions on the document to be
printed:
Call the
printDialog method to invoke a dialog box to select a printer,
or to specify other printer-related information.
Call the
setupDialog method to open the Page Setup dialog box, which
allows you to change the page format, the header and footers. You
can also click the
Setup button
while you preview the document.
-
Call the
print method of the print controller to print your document.
You can also click the print button while you preview the document.
The printing controller also offers methods that you
can overwrite, so that you can customize the Setup dialog, or the
Print Preview dialog created by the printing controller.
