Sizing a JFrame during printAll()

[Timothy Hoyle]

Hi,

Once again, I have been pulling my hair out searching the web for the solution to this, all to no avail.

So I ask youguys, how do I resize my JFrame during printing so that it prints the whole JFrame? I am asking because I have a JFrame that when printed using graphics2d and a printerJob(), prints only the top left corner of the JFrame, while I want it to print the whole thing without cutting it off.

If someone could at least point me in the right direction I would be very grateful. Thanks in advance.

Below should be all of the relevant code.

   
 class printHandler implements ActionListener, Printable
    {
        private JFrame frame;

        printHandler(JFrame frame)
        {
            this.frame = frame;
        }
        public int print (Graphics g, PageFormat pf, int pageIndex)
        {
        

        if (pageIndex > 0)
        {
            return NO_SUCH_PAGE;
        }

        Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D)g;
        g2d.translate(pf.getImageableX(), pf.getImageableY());

        frame.printAll(g);

        return PAGE_EXISTS;
        }
        public void actionPerformed (ActionEvent e)
        {
                PrinterJob pjob = PrinterJob.getPrinterJob();
                PageFormat pf = new PageFormat();
                pf = pjob.defaultPage();
                pjob.setPrintable(this);
                boolean ok = pjob.printDialog();
                if (ok)
                {
                    try
                    {
                        pjob.print();
                    }

                     catch (PrinterException a)
                     {
                        JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,"An error occured","Error Printing",JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE);
                     }
                }

           
        }//end method ActionPerformed
    }//end class printHandler

Just after the g2d.translate(pf.getImageableX(), pf.getImageableY());
add
g2d.scale(scale, scale);

where the scale should be min of
pf.getImageableWidth()/frame.getWidth()
and
pf.getImageableHeight()/frame.getHeight()

Hope this helps,

Stas
