and
2. insert bitmap file

with vc++ 6.0 ? OMG | :OMG:

You can't create/print a PDF file from VC++ out of the box, you will either need a third party PDF writer library OR a PDF printer driver (like CutePDF[^]).

Hello,
no i don't want print directy pdf file,
now i install pdf distiller & have pdf driver - ok -
but when print my string with _T("") macro, print bad words !!!

My sample, use from class QPrint Code Project.

http://www.codeproject.com/KB/printing/QPrint.aspx?fid=301520&select=2885714&fr=1

for example:
CQPrint m_ocQPrint;
m_ocQPrint.Print(hFont,_T("محمد"),FORMAT_NORMAL);

but print bad-words - i found printing text out in CQPrint::Print function & with this code:

// now print the text...
m_DC.TextOut(lx,m_y,strSubText);
if (!(Format & FORMAT_NOLF)) {
m_y += Size.cy + CALCY(m_Abstand);
}
Confused | :confused:

I see...i'm not sure but i guess you need the right font to be able to print this, in your TextOut aproach, try instantiating a CFont object, use e.g. CreateFontIndirect[^] to create a font that fits your needs, select it into the DC and then try to print your text.

Maybe you also need to specify the charset for the font. If you used CreateFontIndirect then you specified it a LOGFONT struct, check out the documentation what it says about the lfCharSet member.

Hide and show dialogs

Hi All,

I have two dialogs(IDD_DIALOG,IDD_DIALOG1).How to hide and show these dialog.

Code-o-mat30-Jan-09 23:25

30-Jan-09 23:25

I assume you have modeless dialogs, in which case simply use ShowWindow[^]. If this doesn't answer your question, please give us more info about your problem.

I did like this.

this-&gt;ShowWindow(SW_HIDE);
CMyDlg *NU = new CMyDlg();
NU->ShowWindow(SW_SHOWNORMAL);

But it showing debug Assertion error.

Code-o-mat30-Jan-09 23:42

30-Jan-09 23:42

I think you either need something like this:

CMyDlg Dlg;
Dlg.DoModal();

or something like this:

CMyDlg *Dlg = new CMyDlg();
Dlg->Create(IDD_DIALOG, NULL);
Dlg->ShowWindow(SW_SHOW);

Of course you need to pay atention at deleting your dialog once you are done with it if you created it with new...

I dont need to create the dialog again. I need to show the hidden dialog.

Pls help me....

Code-o-mat31-Jan-09 0:35

Ok, to clear out misunderstandings, show me how you created your dialogs. If you created both dialogs then you need to call ShowWindow(SW_SHOW) or ShowWindow(SW_HIDE) on the instances of the classe you already created, not on a new instance.

Hello,

I'm new in Visual C++.I want to convert row elements from two dimensional array to one dimensional arrays.I wrote Visual C++ function to do this.This function has only one input parameter.Input parameter is two dimensional array.Firstly I tried to copy first row elements of input two dimensional array to one dimensional array in this function.One dimensional array will have been output parameter of function.But it didn't work.

The code is below:

// Temp is one dimensional array its length is 512
// Input paremeter is two dimensional array its width is 512 ,height is 512
// I want to copy first row elements of input two dimensional array to one dimensional array.

array<double>^ fonksiyon (array<double,2>^dizi )// The function
{ array<double>^ temp=gcnew array<double>(512);
Array::Copy(dizi,temp,512);
return temp;// return one dimesional array

}

Could you please help me ? Best regards...

Only if you don't mind an unmanaged answer:

A long time ago I wrote this article http://www.codeproject.com/KB/printing/printlongtext.aspx[^] which splits a single string across multiple pages.

Its probably still ok. If you get stuck I may be able to help with replies. But its a last ditch thing for me as I dont get much spare time at work atm due to a heavy schedule.

I really shouldn't be replying atm as the Mrs is getting mad at me. D'Oh! | :doh:
