CPrintDialog::GetPrinterDC
Retrieves a handle to the printer device context.
HDC GetPrinterDC( ) const;
Return Value
A handle to the printer device context if successful; otherwise NULL.
Remarks
If the bPrintSetupOnly parameter of the CPrintDialog constructor was FALSE (indicating that the Print dialog box is displayed), then GetPrinterDC returns a handle to the printer device context. You must call the Windows DeleteDC function to delete the device context when you are done using it.
Example
CPrintDialog dlg(FALSE);
if (dlg.DoModal() == IDOK)
{
// Get a handle to the printer device context (DC).
HDC hdc = dlg.GetPrinterDC();
ASSERT(hdc);
// Do something with the HDC...
// Clean up.
CDC::FromHandle(hdc)->DeleteDC();
}
