Printing DataView Grids are tricky in C#/.NET. You can either use a draw String command or can convert the image to a bitmap. Either will print out just fine. I suggest the latter for bigger grids, because it actually propagates through the data it looks a bit more formatted. I've recently integrated into my RPK (Remote Process Killer) Application.
private void ThePrintDocument_PrintPage(object sender, System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs e)
{
/* Bitmap bm = new Bitmap(this.dataGridViewResults.Width, this.dataGridViewResults.Height);
this.dataGridViewResults.DrawToBitmap(bm, new Rectangle(0, 0, this.dataGridViewResults.Width, this.dataGridViewResults.Height));
e.Graphics.DrawImage(bm, 0, 0);*/
}
private void ThePrintDocument_PrintPage(object sender, System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs e)
{
Font f = new Font("Arial", 6, FontStyle.Underline);
Brush b = Brushes.DarkRed;
e.Graphics.DrawString("Device Name" +
"\t\t\t" + "Process Name" + "\t\t\t\t"
+ " Command Line", f, b, 5, 0 * 10);
f = new Font("Arial", 6, FontStyle.Regular);
b = Brushes.Black;
for (int i = 0; i < dataGridViewResults.Rows.Count; i++)
{
try
{
e.Graphics.DrawString(
dataGridViewResults[6, i].Value.ToString() + "\t\t" +
dataGridViewResults[1, i].Value.ToString() + "\t\t\t\t" +
dataGridViewResults[8, i].Value.ToString(),
f, b, 5, (i + 1) * 10);
}
catch
{
}
}
}
