.Hi all,

Your advice will be really appreciatible.

I am doing the following:

I have a class derived from QWebView, and trying to pass the View to the printer.

My HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/html4/loose.dtd">
<html>
<head>
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1">
<title>I am a title</title>
</head>
<body>
<label> i am a label</label>
<br>
<br>
<table border="8px">
<tr>
<td bgcolor="red">add</td>
<td>asd</td>
<td>dfs</td>
<td>sdfds</td>
</tr>

<tr>
<td>sdfds</td>
<td><table border="2px" bgcolor="green" style="width: 100%">
<tr>
td bgcolor="yellow">Hi i am just a String</td>
</tr>
</table></td>
<td>sdfsdf</td>
<td>sdfds</td>
</tr>

</table>

</body>
</html>

Here is my QT Code:

QPrinterprinter;

QWebSettings::globalSettings()->setAttribute(QWebSettings::PrintElementBackgrounds ,true);
setAttribute(QWebSettings:rintElementBackgrounds, true);
settings()->setAttribute(QWebSettings::PrintElementBackgrounds ,true);
settings()->setAttribute(QWebSettings::JavaEnabled,true);

settings()->setAttribute(QWebSettings::JavascriptEnabled,true) ;
settings()->setAttribute(QWebSettings::AutoLoadImages,true);

printer.setFontEmbeddingEnabled(true);
printer.setPageSize(QPrinter::A4);
printer.setOrientation(QPrinter::Portrait);
printer.setFullPage(true);

QPrintDialog*dlog=newQPrintDialog(&printer,this);

qDebug()<<" HoHoooo.. Going to print ";
if(dlog->exec()!=QDialog::Accepted)
{
qDebug()<<"Printing Not accepted.. ";
}
else
{
page()->mainFrame()->print(&printer);
}
}

PROBLEM:

The output is displayed properly in the QWebView Page, but while printing, the text alignment going for a toss.

Kindly suggest if i missed out something or need to add more ?..

Also, i am not sure if the above problem relates to this issue ?
