Adding a printer fails with 1797
Fri, 14 Dec 2007 20:25:48 GMT
We're using the AddPrinter function to add a local printer. On a virgin
machine, the call is failing with a 1797 error. The odd thing is that iff we
add the printer manually through the Add Printer Wizard, then remove it, the
AddPrinter function completes OK and the printer is added.
Any thoughts?

Is there a GDI+ 1.1 available as a redistributable? If so, how do you obtain
it? Or, have GDI+ 1.1 new API's only been incorporated for managed code ?
Thanks,

further study, if I change the theme of vista to "windows classic" or
"windows vista basic", the bitmap is drawed again.
So look like it is only not working in Vista Aero Theme. Does ...

GDI+: How to get actual 'footprint' height of a string?
Tue, 25 Sep 2007 04:06:01 -0700
Hi,
For a project of mine, I need to place very short strings (max. 3 chars,
usually only 1) in very tight cells, visually centering them as best as
possible (also to make the best use of the little room available).
Width is easy: once the proper StringFormat is set (GenericTypographic),
