quickPDF render to Device Context

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hello everybody!

I want to use quickPDF as a viewer in my C++ application, and moreover I need to render to the pdf content to a DC. 

I had a look to windows MFC classes, but I do not know exactly which type of DC is supported.

Can somebody give me more details about how to render the PDF to a DC, or point me to some tutorials?

Thanks in advance,|

D.M.

	Hi D.M. Try something like this ... ________________ BOOL CPDFViewerDlg::OnInitDialog() { CDialog::OnInitDialog (MFC) // Draw updated page m_iDAFileHandle = m_QP.DAOpenFile(m_strFile, CString(_T(""))); m_iPageRef = m_QP.DAFindPage(m_iDAFileHandle, 1); // Resize window based on new PDF MoveWindow(0, 0, m_QP.DAGetPageWidth(m_iDAFileHandle, m_iPageRef), m_QP.DAGetPageHeight(m_iDAFileHandle, m_iPageRef),TRUE); // Set the dialog title CString strTitle; ::GetFileTitle(m_strFile, strTitle.GetBufferSetLength(1024), 1024); strTitle.ReleaseBuffer(); // Recenter the dialog in the center of the active window CenterWindow(GetDesktopWindow()); return TRUE; // return TRUE unless you set the focus to a control // EXCEPTION: OCX Property Pages should return FALSE } void CPDFViewerDlg::OnPaint() { CPaintDC dc(this); m_QP.DARenderPageToDC(m_iDAFileHandle, m_iPageRef, 72,(int) (HDC) dc); } ________________ Edited by deabrew - 03 Sep 09 at 4:07PM

	Thank you so much ! It really worked! I would like to move from MFC to GTK . Is it possible to render it in a GTK DC too? Best wishes, D.M. Edited by munteanu24d - 03 Sep 09 at 4:56PM

	Just in case somebody will need the answer of my question ... here it is: Yes, quickPDF can be used to render even to GTK device content. <code> HWND m_hwnd = HWND(GDK_WINDOW_HWND(this->m_drawingArea.get_window()>gobj() )); HDC m_hdc = GetDC(m_hwnd); QP.RenderPageToDC(100, 1,(int)(HDC) m_hdc); </code>
