Awesomium 不支持打印到打印机设备。相反,Awesomium 支持打印到 PDF 文件。
“正确”的方式
我对在 Windows 中打印的有限理解是,您通常需要使用
GDI+ 绘图表面传递到您的打印事件的自定义事件处理程序中。 The MSDN documentation for the System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument class 很好地提供了示例实现。
我想人们可以使用 Awesomium .Net SDK 实现这种较低级别的打印,但是,这可能是一场没有支持的艰苦战斗
来自 Awesomium 的开发人员。
替代方案
一个不错的“hack”可能是将 Awesomium 的打印到 PDF 功能与打印 PDF 文件粘合在一起。我能想到至少 3 种从 C# 打印 PDF 文件的方法:
在最终用户的计算机上使用 Acrobat Reader 来处理打印,其中包含 Acrobat 的 COM 自动化对象周围的 .Net 运行时可调用包装 (RCW)。见an example of using an Acrobat RCW in VB.NET。
使用用户机器上的任何 PDF 阅读器来处理打印。见an example of using the .Net ProcessStartInfo with the print verb to use the default PDF application on the user's machine。
使用 Windows 常用对话框选择打印机,然后将 PDF 发送到打印机进行原始(直接)打印。 (这类似于将 PostScript [.ps] 文件直接发送到打印机)。这仅适用于直接接受 PDF 文件的打印机。
使用#3 的示例实现
下面是解决方法选项 #3 的示例,使用将 Awesomium PDF 文件直接发送到最终用户选择的打印机。
此答案结合了两个现有示例:Microsoft KB on raw printing with .Net 和 Awesomium answer for printing。
运行演示会加载 Microsoft KB 的 URL,其中包括调用 window.print() 的“打印”UI 按钮。
