Printing Text in Bitmap

Hi,

I'm using LEAD Image Rastering Pro v14. My IDE is VC++ 6 and I'm using the C++-Class-Library.


In an new bitmap I want to put some text and an existing bitmap.
Creating the new bitmap and combining it with the existing one is not
the problem. It works fine. I've just the problem that I can't find a method to ptu text in the bitmap.

Please give my a hint how it works.

Hi all,

I solved the problem using GDI-Functions.

    _i_Result = mcl_Bitmap.Create( _i_Width, _i_Height, 1, ORDER_BGR );
    _i_Result = mcl_Bitmap.Fill( 1 );
    _i_Result = mcl_Bitmap.Invert();
    _h_Dc = mcl_Bitmap.CreateLeadDC();
    _h_Font = CreateFont( // height of font
                          _i_Height,
                          // average character width
                          _i_CWidth, 
                          // angle of escapement
                          0, 
                          // base-line orientation angle
                          0, 
                          // font weight
                          FW_NORMAL,
                          // italic attribute option
                          false,
                          // underline attribute option
                          false,
                          // strikeout attribute option
                          false,
                          // character set identifier
                          DEFAULT_CHARSET,
                          // output precision
                          OUT_CHARACTER_PRECIS,
                          // clipping precision
                          CLIP_DEFAULT_PRECIS ,
                          // output quality
                          DEFAULT_QUALITY,
                          // pitch and family
                          FF_MODERN,
                          // typeface name
                          NULL
                        );

    _h_OldFont = (HFONT)SelectObject( _h_Dc, _h_Font );
    _i_Result = TextOut( _h_Dc, 100, 0, mac_Text, _i_TextLength );

Use the LPaintEffect::Draw3dText function.  The help file contains a small code fragment that shows how to use it.

If you are using the OCX or COM objects, then use the DrawText method.
