Form printing with good quality

mutleey · October 12, 2016

Hello everybody, I have a problem here ... I need to generate a form of sale and print quality using the form I could do is not getting good, I created a window without borders with the fields I need, then use the function _ScreenCapture_CaptureWnd () to generate a print of this window and send the image to the printer using the UDF printMGv2.au3, the problem is that to get a good quality I would have to create a huge window to get the print, any suggestions to print this form with a good quality?
thank you...

example of the form it takes:

Hi,

I can imagine when printing a form via PrtScr you are not going to get the best quality..

Is there a possibility to go a different route, like creating a PDF or using excel to create a form?

I personally use excel to build forms as it allows for simpler form filling automation ...

Thank you, to start the window was what I thought best, most had not considered the possibility of a PDF or Excel.

Still not getting good results with these methods mentioned, I think the best way would be to create the image (bmp or jpg) with GDI + however I'm picking up a lot ... maybe an experienced member in GDI + as the UEZ can shed some light.

Your uploaded image has a dim. of 624 x 796 pixels (96 dpi) -> 16.5 x 21.0 cm; 6.48 x 8.28 inches. On a DIN A4 paper and portrait format it takes approx. 66% of the paper.

When you print that image from an ext. program such as IrfanView for example, how is the print out quality?

From https://www.prepressure.com/library/paper-size/din-a4:

Quote

At 300 ppi (pixels per inch) the image needs to be 2480 x 3508 pixels. This is the required resolution for quality offset printing that will be viewed from a short distance (such as books, brochures, magazines, calenders,…). For photo books it is also the optimum resolution but a somewhat lower pixel count (250 dpi) is acceptable for great looking photographs.

At 150 ppi the image needs to be 1240 x 1754 pixels. This is the minimum resolution for newspapers or posters viewed from a fairly short distance.

Even using IrfanView printing is too bad, as I mentioned above I created a GUI with the fields needed and used the _ScreenCapture_CaptureWnd() function to generate the bmp image and then sent to the printer, to be good like you even mentioned I would have create a huge window more thought into creating bmp using GDI + for then would have set a large image 2480 x 3508 pixels perhaps ... the problem is that I could not add the rectangles in the image created.

thanks for the answer.

mutleey,

Are you sure it is the document and not printer settings?

kylomas

mutleey · October 15, 2016

kylomas,

Yes, as the UEZ comments the way I did the image is low resolution, and the way that I would have to create a huge GUI to get good results.

UEZ · October 15, 2016

Did you print the image with modifying the print size (e.g. best fit, stretch, ...) in the printer settings?

AndyG · October 15, 2016

...it is not depending on printer settings...

THIS

example printer.jpg

is the "original" picture-quality sended to the printer. Which printer in the world makes gold from shi* ???

If you want a more "clearer" (printable) Screenshot, try to change your windows settings of the font/cleartype. What looks "good" onto screen (cleartype) is not implicitly a good printout.

mutleey · October 15, 2016

UEZ yes I used the stretch to fill the entire sheet so the image lost the quality, the window that generated the printscreen has 624x796 pixels.

AndyG yes is not the printer to determine the quality and the image already has a low resolution.

I do not have much experience with GDI+ one more push already help, for example create this GUI with these rectangles and labels.

Can you post the test GUI code from post #1?

AndyG · October 15, 2016

@ mutleey, did you read what i wrote? CLEARTYPE is the problem! It makes the font which you see onto your monitor/screen "smoother" and generates those "subpixels" where are responsible of the bad printout! Try to disable cleartype and show us the result.

@Mutley, não é exatamente o que você queria, mas é disso que estou falando...

Criar uma imagem de fundo, e adicionar os controles necessários, esse exemplo é básico, mas pode ser o início de uma solução.

Após a composição da imagem, você pode imprimir normalmente.

A melhor ideia seria criar uma imagem pronta, com o formulário vazio, e imprimir na imagem apenas as informações, assim fica mais rápido também.

This example it is a toy, to create, move, resize, delete and set color to many Contols.

In this example, it work with GuiCtrlCreateLabel, but can be adapted to any control.

The Mod()'s function it's a attempt to move a Control to 8 to 8 pixels only, for example, not 1 to 1.

If you not want this way/recurse, only comment delete the lines have Mod() function.

If you want to improve this function, it's is welcome.

Use Secondary mouse button, to Add, Delete, Set Color and export to PNG.

Use Primary over the control to Move or Resize.

@Luigi Very good your example, it is basically what I do the same ... I will take a study in code. thank you.

@AndyG yes cleartype used in labels, did not know it was generating subpixels in the sources

The example is not running. I assume because of missing files.

Local $rCli = FileReadToArray(@AppDataDir & "\GJA\Cli\" & $Str1)
