如何在打印之前预先测量字符串?

标签: c# string printing measure

This is a sketch of the paper form 您好,我正在学习使用C#VS 2010 EE编程,我正在编写一个应用程序来填写预打印表单。这个表格在不同的坐标中有几个地方。纸上的三个盒子是多行5“W x 2”H盒子。

我已经为纸质表单上的每个地方创建了一个TextBox的窗体。

问题是当在这些多行文本框中输入信息时,我需要知道在纸上留下多少行以输入更多文本,以及何时停止输入因为PrePrinted框中没有更多可用空间

我做了很多搜索,但我发现的一切都是关于在屏幕上进行测量,这与纸张上的最终结果不符。

在换句话说,我需要知道如何找出将要在纸张上,而串尺寸被输入到文本框,并将其与预先打印好的表格上的可用空间进行比较,所以我可以才停止翻过纸盒上方的底部边框。

纸张上的第一个方框是5英寸宽,2英寸高,从“new RectangleF(60.0F, 200.0F, 560.0F, 200.0F)”开始。我知道这些数字是百分之一英寸。

所有这一切,考虑到我不能按字符数限制TextBoxes,因为并非所有字符都占用相同的空间,例如H != I; M != l;等。

提前感谢您的帮助。 今天是2011年9月5日,基于您的意见和建议,我已将代码更改为使用Graphics.MeasureString。

这是我现在使用Graphics.MeasureString的代码,只有一个richTextBox: 从printDocument1_PrintPage事件完美地工作,但我不知道如何使它从richTextBox1_TextChanged事件

我认为这就是你所追求的目标。

MeasureString(...)

Juat确保您的图形对象是PrintDocument。

using System;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Drawing.Printing;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace GraphicsHandler
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        public Form1()
        {
           InitializeComponent();
        }

        private void textBox1_TextChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            // Check the width of the text whenever it is changed.
            if (checkTextWillFit(textBox1.Text) == true)
            {
                 MessageBox.Show("Entered test is too wide, please reduce the number of characters.");
            }
        }

        private bool checkTextWillFit(string enteredText)
        {
            // Create a handle to the graphics property of the PrintPage object
            Graphics g = pd.PrinterSettings.CreateMeasurementGraphics();
            // Set up a font to be used in the measurement
            Font myFont = new Font("Arial", 12, FontStyle.Regular, GraphicsUnit.Millimeter);
            // Measure the size of the string using the selected font
            // Return true if it is too large
            if (g.MeasureString(enteredText, myFont).Width > 100)
            {
                return true;
            }
            else
            {
                return false;
            }
        }

        PrintDocument pd = null;

        private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            // Initialise the print documnet used to render the printed page
            pd = new PrintDocument();
            // Create the event handler for when the page is printed
            pd.PrintPage += new PrintPageEventHandler(pd_PrintPage);
        }

        void pd_PrintPage(object sender, PrintPageEventArgs e)
        {
            // Page printing logic here            
        }

文本框中的信息将存储在数据库中,并在某个时间打印在预打印表单上。由于纸张上每个框中的空间有限,我必须确保进入数据库的内容不超过纸质表格中每个单元格可以处理的内容。这是避免用户输入的行数超出rectangleF:

如果我是对的,你可以在打印之前使用一个名为FormattedText的类来格式化它。然后你可以检查FormatedText的width属性。

这里有一个很好的打印教程:http://www.switchonthecode.com/tutorials/printing-in-wpf。第二部分更侧重于分页(这是我认为你正在处理的):http://www.switchonthecode.com/tutorials/wpf-printing-part-2-pagination。 FormattedText出现在这里。
