Declaration
procedure PrintImage(PrtCanvas: TCanvas = nil; MarginLeft: double = 1; MarginTop: double = 1; MarginRight: double = 1; MarginBottom: double = 1; VerticalPos: TIEVerticalPos = ievpCenter; HorizontalPos: TIEHorizontalPos = iehpCenter; Size: TIESize = iesFitToPage; SpecWidth: double = 0; SpecHeight: double = 0; GammaCorrection: double = 1; const Heading: string = ''; HeadingHeight: Integer = 5; HeadingColor: TColor = clBlack; SubsampleFilter: TResampleFilter = rfFastLinear);
Description
Print the current bitmap by specifying margins, vertical position, horizontal position and size.
| Parameter | Description |
| PrtCanvas | The canvas to bring to. Generally the application will pass this as Printer.Canvas |
| MarginLeft | Left page margin in inches (Specify zero for no margin) |
| MarginTop | Top page margin in inches (Specify zero for no margin) |
| MarginRight | Right page margin in inches (Specify zero for no margin) |
| MarginBottom | Bottom page margin in inches (Specify zero for no margin) |
| VerticalPos | How the image is vertically aligned on the page |
| HorizontalPos | How the image horizontally aligned on the page |
| Size | How the image should be sized for printing |
| SpecWidth | The absolute width of the image in inches if Size = iesSpecifiedSize. The number of pages wide if Size = iesMultiplePages |
| SpecHeight | The absolute height of the image in inches if Size = iesSpecifiedSize. The number of pages high if Size = iesMultiplePages |
| GammaCorrection | The gamma correction value (Specify 1.0 to disable gamma correction) |
| Heading | Specifies the heading to print at the top of the page |
| HeadingHeight | The height of the heading, as a PERCENTAGE of the overall page height, e.g. 5 will make the heading 5% of the page height |
| HeadingColor | Specifies the color of the heading text |
| SubsampleFilter | The filter that is used to enhance quality if hte image needs to be resampled for printing |

◼You must add the iexHelperFunctions unit to your uses clause
◼Delphi/C++ 2005 or newer is required to use helper classes
// Print the image in the center of the page at the original size
Printer.Title := 'Original Image';
ABitmap.PrintImage( 0, ievpCenter, iehpCenter, iesNormal, 0, 0, 1 );
// Print the image in the center of the page stretched to page dimensions (respecting the proportions)
Printer.Title := 'Stretched Image';
ABitmap.PrintImage( 0, ievpCenter, iehpCenter, iesFitToPage, 0, 0, 1 );
// Print the image as a poster, four pages wide and six pages high
Printer.Title := 'Poster';
ABitmap.PrintImage( 0, ievpCenter, iehpCenter, iesMultiplePages, 4, 6, 1 );
