Here's a little to get you started. Start a new MFC/SDI app and plop this stuff in the appropriate locations. Set up menu/toolbar buttons for the zoomin/zoomout. Add some drawing code to your OnDraw and you should find that the drawing is fit_to_width in the view and it should be fit to width when printing. The rest is up to you. have fun... /////////////////////////////////////////////// //Constants const int MAX_SCALE = 20; // The maximum scale factor //CDocument members... protected: CSize m_DocSize; CSize CYourDoc::GetDocSize() const { return m_DocSize; } CYourDoc::CYourDoc() { // TODO: add one-time construction code here m_DocSize=CSize(2000,2800); } //CScrollView members... protected: int m_Scale; CYourView::CYourView() { // TODO: add construction code here m_Scale=1; // Set scale factor 1:1 SetScrollSizes(MM_TEXT,CSize(0,0)); // Set arbitrary values } void CYourView::OnPrepareDC(CDC* pDC, CPrintInfo* pInfo) { CScrollView::OnPrepareDC(pDC); // TODO: Add your specialized code here and/or call the base class // Set up the DC for the current scale factor int nExtentX; int nExtentY; CSize sizeDoc; CRect rectClient; // Allows the rectangle to include the bottom and rightmost logical unit // SetGraphicsMode(pDC->m_hDC,GM_ADVANCED); pDC->SetMapMode(MM_ISOTROPIC); // Allow scaling with aspect ratio preserved // Get pertinent rectangle data GetClientRect(&rectClient); sizeDoc=GetDocument()->GetDocSize(); sizeDoc.cy=(-sizeDoc.cy); // Y goes down as it increments pDC->SetWindowExt(sizeDoc); // Window extent is size of document // Calculate viewport extent nExtentX=(int)(GetScale()*rectClient.Width()); nExtentY=(int)((GetScale()*((nExtentX*sizeDoc.cy)/(sizeDoc.cx)))); // What kind of device context do we have? if (pDC->IsPrinting()==TRUE) { // Printer Context.
