Better printing...?

[magician13134]

I'm making a notepad style software, and the point is to replace notepad, so it seems ridiculous to open notepad to print it... also, I'm printing from a temp directory/temp file, so at the top of the file it says 'namepadprintjob.txt', I know I could name the temp file the name of the file, but I'd rather that not be there. How should I go about printing a different way..?

So you want the title of the file, to be centered at the top of the page?

No.... I can do that... I don't want it there at all... And I don't want it to open any other software to print... Right now it prints through notepad which is dumb... I want my software to print it.

Wouldn't _FilePrint do the job?

If you can use WordPad to print RTF file.

wordpad.exe /p <filename> or write.exe /p <filename>

depends on OS.

...no... I don't want to use ANYTHING to print my files! I want MY software to do ALL the printing. So if I uninstalled EVERYTHING else on the computer, I could still print with it.

@BALA that's what I am using, and I don't like it.
