Hi,

I try to create a non-user interface program which gets file name from
command line, open and format the document, and print the labels. What
application framework can be used? How process print with MFC? Detailed
information is appreciated.

Thanks,

ybc

You can directly invoke the Print Dialog using the flags to return the printer DC for the
default printer (no UI pops up); this is one of the most expedient ways of getting the
printer DC. Just give it a parent window handle of NULL. After that, it's just
programming. Use a console app, enable MFC in it if you want to use CString (for VS.NET,
I've not looked into what is involved to get just the CString components; maybe someone
can post an answer that avoids bringing the whole MFC runtime in...)

Hi Joe,
Thanks for your replay.
When I use CPrintDialog::CreatePrinterDC() to return a handle of DC it's a
HDC type, how to get a handle of CDC type so I can use its StartDC() and
StartPage() functions?
Thanks,
ybc

CDC dc;
dc.Attach(handle_of_dc)

when the CDC leaves scope, the DC will be released.

Or:

CDC *pDC = CDC::FromHandle (handle_of_dc);
