how to show the print preview category?

504 Views Asked by At

Well I am working with visual studio 2015 on an mfc project. I have enabled the office like ribbon in the project creation wizard. I am inheriting from CView for my view class to get printing support as documentation suggests. I have also overrided OnDraw too. Now I want to get a print preview of the document with the print preview options on the ribbon. I don't know where to start or how to act. Any suggestions, propositions or examples ? Thanks in advance.

You do not need to do it again for print preview window.

When you start a new "MFC application" for MDI and "Ribbon control", the application it self provides a print preview option.

Once you create a new application, Run the application.

The application runs and a windows opens.

Select the options as shown in below images.

You will get "print preview" option.

Search in the source code for "print view" to understand how it is implemented.enter image description here
