Printing Adorner Layers in a RichTextBox

I have a richTextBox Editor that contains image adorner layers on top of each word.

I want to print the document in a good format and pri开发者_开发百科nt the adorner picture layers too.

Is there a way I can accomplish this?

I tried PrintDialog but it didnt print the adorner layers.

I managed to print an Adorner layer associated with a item using http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/wpf/thread/ae8312df-9ed9-4c4c-951b-42cee5427afa/ . I don't know if it would work for the RichTextBox, I wasn't able to add the Adorner inside the RichTextBox.

Since the Adorner is added OnRender, I had to wait until all was rendered on screen before printing it (hence the Print button), if I printed in the Window_Loaded function, I did not get the Adorner layer.

The Style to the ContentControl is necessary for the AdornerLayer to print.

Code follows:

    </RichTextBox>
</Grid>
        <Button Click="Button_Click">Print</Button>
        </StackPanel>
</ContentControl>

Window code

 public partial class Window1 : Window
{
    public Window1()
    {
        InitializeComponent();
    }

    private void Window_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        var myAdornerLayer = AdornerLayer.GetAdornerLayer(MyDoc);
        myAdornerLayer.Add(new SimpleCircleAdorner(MyDoc));


    }

    private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        LocalPrintServer ps = new LocalPrintServer();
        PrintQueue pq = ps.DefaultPrintQueue;
        XpsDocumentWriter xpsdw = PrintQueue.CreateXpsDocumentWriter(pq);
        PrintTicket pt = pq.UserPrintTicket;
        if (xpsdw != null)
        {
            pt.PageOrientation = PageOrientation.Portrait;
            PageMediaSize pageMediaSize = new PageMediaSize(this.ActualWidth, this.ActualHeight);
            pt.PageMediaSize = pageMediaSize;

            xpsdw.Write(MyContent);
        }
    }
}

Adorner from Microsoft SimpleCircleAdorner.

Hope this helps you.

The alternative I used when I had to create a report, was I used a FlowDocument into which I embedded everything I needed. You can see what that looks like here.

Here is the ugly code used to generate this report, I hope this might help and give you pointers on what to do if you go this way. Apologies if it's too long, I don't have the time to clean it up, start reading at "//START of FlowDocument".

For including UI elements into the report, you can use UIContainers as described under the FlowDocument link. And maybe mix it with the solution created here on stackoverflow to add Adorners to a flow document?

    private FlowDocument HydroPowerReportI(string PlantPath, string PlantName, bool filled)
    {
        //Ignore these first 20 lines, they are there to populate my data
        List<HydroMarket.LocalData.BinaryIO.HydroFileIO.Report1> data = new List<HydroMarket.LocalData.BinaryIO.HydroFileIO.Report1>();
        int nTime = 0;
        List<int> iReportingPoints = new List<int>();
        SimulationsTreeViewModel S = (this.DataContext as SimulationsTreeViewModel);
        List<DateTime> dates = new List<DateTime>();
        if (filled)
        {
            if (HydroFileIO.ObtainReportI(data, out nTime, PlantPath))
