Re: how to print strings from editboxes wherever you want on A4 paper
The simplest way is via WYSIWYG (for which MFC is already set up).
Assuming your edit boxes are in a dialog which is then dismissed:
1. Change your view to be CScrollView-derived instead of
CView-derived.(see the Scribble tutorial if you're not sure how)
2. Change your mapping mode to MM_LOMETRIC by putting the following in
your OnInitialUpdate:
SetScrollSizes(MM_LOMETRIC, CSize(2000,2700)); // A4
3. Put your drawing code in OnDraw(), using TextOut() (remembering that
y is now negative down the page instead of positive).
Run the program, check the text is where you want it to be, click
"Print".
