MFCPage Class Library

Introduction

The MFC is a very big and robust C++ class library for programming the Microsoft Windows systems but it does not provide enough code to print simple or complex documents from applications.

There are many ways for an application to create printed documents but the best of all is the one made by the application itself so if you want to add print and print preview functions to an MFC based application you have to write a lot of code.

The print functions are always the same and can be modelized to be used in a wide range of document types.

So here comes this class library.

Based upon the MFC classes the MFCPage library creates a virtual programming environment where to create pages and books to be printed or print-previewed. The pages can contain text with variable formats, images and tables. All is composed in a very object-oriented way so it is very understandable and rapidly insertable into existing projects.

Furthermore having the source code of the MFCPage classes, or at least its full set of header files, a developer can write new classes of page objects, like special kinds of charts, maps and so on, using the existing and tested classes for basic line and text output.

The MFCPage class library has been used both in business and in scientific applications and comes in help to those developers who want the high performance and robustness of C++ programs with the full printing and viewing facilities of Visual Basic components.
