Printing in Quickwin

[ivomar]

Hello all,
We've developed a program in Fortran that plots 2D/3D graphs, but when we want to print it using the quickwin intrinsic function winprint the printing is not good. The graphs are printed broken, not smooth. What advice you guys could give me to help us solve this printing problem?

Greetings,
Ivomar

I'm afraid that you've hit the wall with this. What you see on the paper is the same you see on the screen -- but that's a bitmap which doesn't look smooth when printed. Basically, what you'd have to do is to repeat all drawing code using Win32 drawing functions instead of QuickWin ones. If I recall correctly, this thread gave some framework for that.

You might be able to gain a quick improvement by chaging your screen resolution to the finest possible befiore starting your program This would produce a finer detailed bit map, but it would still be fairly poor visually.
