printing - Calculating a formatted string's width & height in C# -

I try to convert XML from a database to generate a PDF using an XML XML (XML-FO) I am doing

Due to complex rules in the context of paging for this document, when I generate XML, which is consumed by XSL, then calculate in determining the page break I have seen that these calculations I am getting inconsistent results. For example, in the context of height, the required print area is 9 inches, which I increase by 72 points to points with a score (64 inches per inch) = 648 points.

So for every line, I want to reduce the line height to the measurement string, which I want to reduce by then 648, to see if the line is still available to print. But whenever a page break is determined, there will be a large white spot left below. It seems that the 648pt conversion is wrong. Now I am also worried that the height of the measurement string method can also be wrong.

I apologize for the long post, but I appreciate any input / suggestion that what I am doing. P>

Thank you very much!

I think the biggest problem is that you are using GDI to measure the string Methods that will be displayed in PDF. It's just not going to be accurate enough (even if you find the fonts alike, they use different rendering techniques while remembering me.)

So, you have to calculate Other forms should try. A simple first step would be to estimate the characters per line, and then the height of each line will be in PDF. Then, just use those numbers once you turn off, you can improve the technique to pay attention to specific characters and assess. (You probably do not want to reach the level of calculation of karning.)

Another technique might be to do something that I had worked in a previous project. Using ITextSharp, we had to add a diagonal text to a page (as a type of watermark) since the text was unknown, so we guessed the original font size. Then the code went into a loop where it measures the size of the rendered text, and it was the right size to fill the page without clipping any text, and adjust it up or down. (All this was done with guessing and measuring iTextSharp.)

c# - ListView onScroll event -

-
I am programming a simple C # application, and I need a Scallow event on the list view. So I inherited the original ListView class created in ListviewEx witch. I found out how to locate the scroll message from WinAPI and I modified the WndProc method. Now I have this WndProc: protected override zero WndProc (Ref message message) {base.WndProc (Ref I); If (m.msg == WM_VSCROLL) {onScroll (This, New EventArgs ()); }} But the problem is, I do not know how to know about scrolling information. This data should be in wParam, but there is a LOWORD macro ++ like in C in C # and I switch to find the criteria like SB_ below, SB_ENDSCROLL, SB_PAGEUP etc. there any way Need to change the LOWORD macro from C #? Or any other way to find the necessary parameters about scrolling? You can define the WParam constants as the following: Private const int WM_HSCROLL = 0x114; Private Constant WM_VSCROLL = 0x115; Private contact int SBHOZZ = 0; Private Consultant SB_VERT = 1; Private Con...

PHP - get image from byte array -

-
I am trying to create a back-end for my mobile application. I am sending the content of an image in the body of the HTTP request (output stream) as a byte array, I want to read this stream of bytes in PHP scripts and take back an image. Can anyone tell me how can I do this? Thank you. You can obtain the request body $ body = Reading from file_get_contents ('php: // input'); What you do with that data Depending on you, you can write the data in a file as you mentioned that this is image data, you can drop the data into the object can do. Another option is to use and load the image.

Linux Terminal Problem with Non-Canonical Terminal I/O app -

-
I have a small app written in C to run on Linux. Part of the app accepts user-input from keyboard , And it uses non-canonical terminal mode so that it can respond to each keystroke. The section of the code that accepts input is a simple task that is called repeatedly in the loop: char get_input () {char C = 0; Int res = reading (input_tamille, & amp; c, 1); If (RSS == 0) 0 returns; If (res == -1) {/ * snip error handling * /} return c; } It reads a letter from the terminal if there is no input within a given time limit, (c_cc [VTIME] value in the vocabulary structure), read () 0 And get_input () is called again It all works very well, I have recently discovered that if you run this app in a terminal window, and then the app Close the terminal window without ending, the app will not exit Received, but CPU intensive launches into an infinite loop, where the read () returns 0 without waiting continued. So how can I get out of the apple if it runs from the terminal win...
