Hi, there, I am also struggeling with System.Drawing.Printing on Mono/Linux. I think the problem is even worse than strings simply to disappear. In fact thei are placed incorrect, means that clipping rectangle seems to be correct whilst the location of the String on the canvas has some inexplainable offset. I am attaching these two Images. As you can see, large Strings can partially be seend while small strings are being pushed out of the clipping area:
This is how it looks like on mono 2.0.1/linux (CUPS via distiller and ps2pdf): http://www.nabble.com/file/p20687776/mono.png mono.png This is how it should look like (Windows XP, FreePDF XP): http://www.nabble.com/file/p20687776/win32.png win32.png The Code is something similar to the original post, not worth mentioning. Note: Whilst printing result in erronious output, drawing with the same OnPrint-Procedure iside a control or on a bitmap file works perfectly. So the error seems to be located inside the printing routines. You can also see, that lines, rectangles and images are placed in a correct manner. I am still trying printer settings /w font resolution etc. but no success yet :-( Do some people do print with mono-driven apps? I think so ;-) So, what is the clue? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/print-print-preview-not-working-for-drawstring-tp18630399p20687776.html Sent from the Mono - WinForms mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Mono-winforms-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-winforms-list
