Scaling with CWnd::Print()

Hello everyone,

I'm never good at printing.  I'm sure someone can help me with this
basic question.  I'm trying to print the content of the CListCtrl
using the CWnd::Print() function.  I call this function as follow:

void CMyView::OnDraw(CDC* pDC)
{
       if (pDC->IsPrinting())
       {
               m_wndList.Print(pDC, PF_CLIENT);
               ...
       }
       ....
}

This method works fine.  However, since the mapping mode of pDC
is MM_TEXT the output on paper is really small.  I believe I need
to change it to MM_ISOTROPIC for scaling.  Futuremore, I need to
call SetWindowOrg(), SetViewportExt(), etc... to make it work.
I kept on trying but never got it to work.

Could someone show me how to scale it 2 times larger?

Thanks in advance,
-Quang (quang@psnw.com)

Quang,

You are correct in using MM_ISOTROPHIC for the mapping mode and 
using SetViewPort() etc.  My code looks like this:
	int nPageWidth = pDC->GetDeviceCaps(HORZRES);
	int nPageHeight = pDC->GetDeviceCaps(VERTRES);
	pDC->SetMapMode(MM_ISOTROPIC);
	pDC->SetWindowExt(nPageWidth,nPageHeight);
	pDC->SetViewportExt(nPageWidth,nPageHeight);

The problem is that the above doesn't work the way I expected it 
to.  We HAD Microsoft Premier Support so I contacted Microsoft 
on this problem.  They said not to use Print().  It doesn't work 
right and they know it.  Maybe in the next release.  I was told 
by them to print out information "by hand" using the old print 
methods.
Regards,

Dean
