Subj : Re: DEVMODE and OWL printing To : borland.public.cpp.borlandcpp From : coffeepuck Date : Sat Feb 28 2004 11:50 am A couple of my clients have been having trouble printing and I thought it might was something to do with the DEVMODE structure. So I check to see if there was difference in the BCPP 5.02 DEVMODE and the newest MS DEVMODE. There was a slight difference in the two so I modified the "wingdi.h" file: /* fix to use ms devmode structure */ #ifdef USE_BCPP_DEVMODE typedef struct _devicemodeA { BYTE dmDeviceName[CCHDEVICENAME]; WORD dmSpecVersion; WORD dmDriverVersion; WORD dmSize; WORD dmDriverExtra; DWORD dmFields; short dmOrientation; short dmPaperSize; short dmPaperLength; short dmPaperWidth; short dmScale; short dmCopies; short dmDefaultSource; short dmPrintQuality; short dmColor; short dmDuplex; short dmYResolution; short dmTTOption; short dmCollate; BYTE dmFormName[CCHFORMNAME]; WORD dmLogPixels; DWORD dmBitsPerPel; DWORD dmPelsWidth; DWORD dmPelsHeight; DWORD dmDisplayFlags; DWORD dmDisplayFrequency; DWORD dmICMMethod; DWORD dmICMIntent; DWORD dmMediaType; DWORD dmDitherType; DWORD dmICCManufacturer; DWORD dmICCModel; DWORD dmPanningWidth; DWORD dmPanningHeight; } DEVMODEA, *PDEVMODEA, *NPDEVMODEA, *LPDEVMODEA; typedef struct _devicemodeW { WCHAR dmDeviceName[CCHDEVICENAME]; WORD dmSpecVersion; WORD dmDriverVersion; WORD dmSize; WORD dmDriverExtra; DWORD dmFields; short dmOrientation; short dmPaperSize; short dmPaperLength; short dmPaperWidth; short dmScale; short dmCopies; short dmDefaultSource; short dmPrintQuality; short dmColor; short dmDuplex; short dmYResolution; short dmTTOption; short dmCollate; WCHAR dmFormName[CCHFORMNAME]; WORD dmLogPixels; DWORD dmBitsPerPel; DWORD dmPelsWidth; DWORD dmPelsHeight; DWORD dmDisplayFlags; DWORD dmDisplayFrequency; DWORD dmICMMethod; DWORD dmICMIntent; DWORD dmMediaType; DWORD dmDitherType; DWORD dmICCManufacturer; DWORD dmICCModel; DWORD dmPanningWidth; DWORD dmPanningHeight; } DEVMODEW, *PDEVMODEW, *NPDEVMODEW, *LPDEVMODEW; #else typedef struct _devicemodeA { BYTE dmDeviceName[CCHDEVICENAME]; WORD dmSpecVersion; WORD dmDriverVersion; WORD dmSize; WORD dmDriverExtra; DWORD dmFields; union { struct { short dmOrientation; short dmPaperSize; short dmPaperLength; short dmPaperWidth; }; POINTL dmPosition; }; short dmScale; short dmCopies; short dmDefaultSource; short dmPrintQuality; short dmColor; short dmDuplex; short dmYResolution; short dmTTOption; short dmCollate; BYTE dmFormName[CCHFORMNAME]; WORD dmLogPixels; DWORD dmBitsPerPel; DWORD dmPelsWidth; DWORD dmPelsHeight; union { DWORD dmDisplayFlags; DWORD dmNup; }; DWORD dmDisplayFrequency; #if(WINVER >= 0x0400) DWORD dmICMMethod; DWORD dmICMIntent; DWORD dmMediaType; DWORD dmDitherType; DWORD dmReserved1; DWORD dmReserved2; DWORD dmPanningWidth; DWORD dmPanningHeight; #endif /* WINVER >= 0x0400 */ } DEVMODEA, *PDEVMODEA, *NPDEVMODEA, *LPDEVMODEA; typedef struct _devicemodeW { WCHAR dmDeviceName[CCHDEVICENAME]; WORD dmSpecVersion; WORD dmDriverVersion; WORD dmSize; WORD dmDriverExtra; DWORD dmFields; union { struct { short dmOrientation; short dmPaperSize; short dmPaperLength; short dmPaperWidth; }; POINTL dmPosition; }; short dmScale; short dmCopies; short dmDefaultSource; short dmPrintQuality; short dmColor; short dmDuplex; short dmYResolution; short dmTTOption; short dmCollate; WCHAR dmFormName[CCHFORMNAME]; WORD dmLogPixels; DWORD dmBitsPerPel; DWORD dmPelsWidth; DWORD dmPelsHeight; union { DWORD dmDisplayFlags; DWORD dmNup; }; DWORD dmDisplayFrequency; #if(WINVER >= 0x0400) DWORD dmICMMethod; DWORD dmICMIntent; DWORD dmMediaType; DWORD dmDitherType; DWORD dmReserved1; DWORD dmReserved2; DWORD dmPanningWidth; DWORD dmPanningHeight; #endif /* WINVER >= 0x0400 */ } DEVMODEW, *PDEVMODEW, *NPDEVMODEW, *LPDEVMODEW; #endif // USE_BCPP_DEVMODE I just did this modification and it works on all the systems I have here to test them on. I still don't know if it will correct the problem that my clients are experiencing. Please let me know if this fixes your problem. Steve .
