方法 : Windows フォームで複数ページのテキスト ファイルを印刷する

更新 : 2007 年 11 月

Windows ベースのアプリケーションでテキストを印刷するのは、ごく一般的な操作です。Graphics クラスは、画面やプリンタなどのデバイスにオブジェクト (グラフィックスまたはテキスト) を描画するメソッドを提供します。

cwbe712d.alert_note(ja-jp,VS.90).gifメモ :

TextRendererDrawText メソッドでは、印刷はサポートされていません。次のコード例に示すように、印刷するためにテキストを描画するには、常に GraphicsDrawString メソッドを使用する必要があります。

テキストを印刷するには

  1. フォームに PrintDocument コンポーネントと文字列を追加します。

    Private printDocument1 As New PrintDocument()
    Private stringToPrint As String
    
    private PrintDocument printDocument1 = new PrintDocument();
    private string stringToPrint;
    
  2. 文書を印刷する場合、DocumentName プロパティを印刷する文書に設定し、前もって追加してあった文字列に文書の内容を読み込みます。

    Dim docName As String = "testPage.txt"
    Dim docPath As String = "c:\"
    printDocument1.DocumentName = docName
    Dim stream As New FileStream(docPath + docName, FileMode.Open)
    Try
        Dim reader As New StreamReader(stream)
        Try
            stringToPrint = reader.ReadToEnd()
        Finally
            reader.Dispose()
        End Try
    Finally
        stream.Dispose()
    End Try
    
    string docName = "testPage.txt";
    string docPath = @"c:\";
    printDocument1.DocumentName = docName;
    using (FileStream stream = new FileStream(docPath + docName, FileMode.Open))
    using (StreamReader reader = new StreamReader(stream))
    {
        stringToPrint = reader.ReadToEnd();
    }
    
  3. PrintPage イベント ハンドラで PrintPageEventArgs クラスの Graphics プロパティと文書の内容を使用し、1 ページあたりの行の長さと行数を計算します。各ページの描画後に、そのページが最終ページかどうかを確認し、結果に応じて PrintPageEventArgsHasMorePages プロパティを設定します。HasMorePages が false になるまで、PrintPage イベントが発生します。また、PrintPage イベントがイベント処理メソッドに関連付けられていることを確認します。

    イベント ハンドラを使用して、フォームに使用したのと同じフォントで "testPage.txt" ファイルの内容を印刷するコード例を次に示します。

    Private Sub printDocument1_PrintPage(ByVal sender As Object, _
        ByVal e As PrintPageEventArgs)
    
        Dim charactersOnPage As Integer = 0
        Dim linesPerPage As Integer = 0
    
        ' Sets the value of charactersOnPage to the number of characters 
        ' of stringToPrint that will fit within the bounds of the page.
        e.Graphics.MeasureString(stringToPrint, Me.Font, e.MarginBounds.Size, _
            StringFormat.GenericTypographic, charactersOnPage, linesPerPage)
    
        ' Draws the string within the bounds of the page
        e.Graphics.DrawString(stringToPrint, Me.Font, Brushes.Black, _
            e.MarginBounds, StringFormat.GenericTypographic)
    
        ' Remove the portion of the string that has been printed.
        stringToPrint = stringToPrint.Substring(charactersOnPage)
    
        ' Check to see if more pages are to be printed.
        e.HasMorePages = stringToPrint.Length > 0
    
    End Sub
    
    private void printDocument1_PrintPage(object sender, PrintPageEventArgs e)
    {
        int charactersOnPage = 0;
        int linesPerPage = 0;
    
        // Sets the value of charactersOnPage to the number of characters 
        // of stringToPrint that will fit within the bounds of the page.
        e.Graphics.MeasureString(stringToPrint, this.Font,
            e.MarginBounds.Size, StringFormat.GenericTypographic,
            out charactersOnPage, out linesPerPage);
    
        // Draws the string within the bounds of the page
        e.Graphics.DrawString(stringToPrint, this.Font, Brushes.Black,
            e.MarginBounds, StringFormat.GenericTypographic);
    
        // Remove the portion of the string that has been printed.
        stringToPrint = stringToPrint.Substring(charactersOnPage);
    
        // Check to see if more pages are to be printed.
        e.HasMorePages = (stringToPrint.Length > 0);
    }
    
  4. Print メソッドを呼び出します。PrintPage イベントが発生します。

    printDocument1.Print()
    
    printDocument1.Print();
