/**
    @class wxPrintout
    @wxheader{print.h}

    This class encapsulates the functionality of printing out an application document.

    A new class must be derived and members overridden to respond to calls such as
    OnPrintPage() and HasPage() and to render the print image onto an associated wxDC.
    Instances of this class are passed to wxPrinter::Print() or
    to a wxPrintPreview object to initiate printing or previewing.

    Your derived wxPrintout is responsible for drawing both the preview image and
    the printed page. If your windows' drawing routines accept an arbitrary DC as an
    argument, you can re-use those routines within your wxPrintout subclass to draw
    the printout image. You may also add additional drawing elements within your
    wxPrintout subclass, like headers, footers, and/or page numbers. However, the
    image on the printed page will often differ from the image drawn on the screen,
    as will the print preview image -- not just in the presence of headers and
    footers, but typically in scale. A high-resolution printer presents a much
    larger drawing surface (i.e., a higher-resolution DC); a zoomed-out preview
    image presents a much smaller drawing surface (lower-resolution DC). By using
    the routines FitThisSizeToXXX() and/or MapScreenSizeToXXX() within your
    wxPrintout subclass to set the user scale and origin of the associated DC, you
    can easily use a single drawing routine to draw on your application's windows,
    to create the print preview image, and to create the printed paper image, and
    achieve a common appearance to the preview image and the printed page.
