After creating 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 your 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
printPreview method to preview your 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.
