452 A new class must be derived and members overridden to respond to calls such as
453 OnPrintPage() and HasPage() and to render the print image onto an associated wxDC.
454 Instances of this class are passed to wxPrinter::Print() or
455 to a wxPrintPreview object to initiate printing or previewing.
456
457 Your derived wxPrintout is responsible for drawing both the preview image and
458 the printed page. If your windows' drawing routines accept an arbitrary DC as an
459 argument, you can re-use those routines within your wxPrintout subclass to draw
460 the printout image. You may also add additional drawing elements within your
461 wxPrintout subclass, like headers, footers, and/or page numbers. However, the
462 image on the printed page will often differ from the image drawn on the screen,
463 as will the print preview image -- not just in the presence of headers and
464 footers, but typically in scale. A high-resolution printer presents a much
465 larger drawing surface (i.e., a higher-resolution DC); a zoomed-out preview
466 image presents a much smaller drawing surface (lower-resolution DC). By using
467 the routines FitThisSizeToXXX() and/or MapScreenSizeToXXX() within your
468 wxPrintout subclass to set the user scale and origin of the associated DC, you
469 can easily use a single drawing routine to draw on your application's windows,
470 to create the print preview image, and to create the printed paper image, and
471 achieve a common appearance to the preview image and the printed page.

673 Returns the rectangle that corresponds to the entire paper in pixels, called the
674 paper rectangle.
675
676 This distinction between paper rectangle and page rectangle reflects the fact that
677 most printers cannot print all the way to the edge of the paper.
678 The page rectangle is a rectangle whose top left corner is at (0,0) and whose width
679 and height are given by wxDC::GetPageSizePixels().
680
681 On MSW and Mac, the page rectangle gives the printable area of the paper, while the
682 paper rectangle represents the entire paper, including non-printable borders.
683 Thus, the rectangle returned by wxDC::GetPaperRectPixels() will have a top left corner
684 whose coordinates are small negative numbers and the bottom right corner will have
685 values somewhat larger than the width and height given by wxDC::GetPageSizePixels().
686
687 On other platforms and for PostScript printing, the paper is treated as if its entire
688 area were printable, so this function will return the same rectangle as the page
689 rectangle.
