Re: Simple printing and graphics

I'm confused. You say you want "sugggestions on how to implement the
rendering of each page." This would refer, I presume to "printing each
page?" That's not hard at all to do, which is why I reviewed how the
PrintDocument prints. It raises an event when you call the Print method. The
event passes a boolean "HasMorePages." If this is turned on in the event
handler, the event will fire again. So, let's say you've got an array, a
collection, an aggregate group of objects. All you have to do is set the
"HasMorePages" value to true until you get to the last item in the
Collection. As you keep track of the current position in the Collection, you
print each item in the same event handler.

<snipped big explanation of current .Net printing process>

Thank you for your response. I understand the .Net way of printing.
That was not my question. I wish to create a class for simplifying the
process. My original post described how I wish for the process to
occur.

My question was a request for suggestions on how to implement the
rendering of each page. Ultimately, behind the scenes, my class would
use the existing .Net printing infrastructure to actually print the
document. I am attempting to create a class to make it easier to
print. My thought was a document class with a Pages collection. The
user of the class could use that metaphor more easily than the event
driven nature of the .Net way.

Thanks again.

Chris
