I have attached demo projects to show the issue. To reproduce the issue, run the demo for v14 and print the supplied sample image. Follow the same steps for the v15 demo. Upon completion, examine the printed paper copies of the image and you will notice the print out from v14 is sharper. This can be easily seen especially with smaller text and numbers. From what I can tell, this is due to differences in the ScaleToGray PaintDisplayMode between the two versions. Both demos make use of the AnnPrinter object to accomplish printing. After viewing the LT demo for v15 printing, it seems that printing in the demo is now done via GDI calls. My questions, is how can we continue to use the AnnPrinter object in v15 to print and maintain the same clarity that we have seen with printing in the v14 dlls. Using other combinations of PaintDisplayModes only seems to make the clarity worse.    Report

I will update this post as soon as I hear something back from our engineers.   If you want me to update you though email, please send an email to support@leadtools.com and mention this forum post.    Report

Furthermore, when our engineers tested using different printers, they could also get good results with RasterPaintEngine.Gdi engine when they unlocked Document Imaging support. It appears the issue depends on 3 factors: - The paint engine you use. - Whether you unlock Document support. - The printer driver. We have closed the incident without taking action.    Report
