I'm using TRichView 1.8.1. trial with BCB6.

I have a TRichView with a single style. The font of the style is set to

Courier New, 10 points.

The margins of TRVPrint are all set to 0.

Now I add 100 lines and print the document. I get 76 lines per page.

When I manually layout the page, I only get 68 lines per page.

Here's the code I use:

RichView1->Clear();

AnsiString s;

int top, left;

int page_height = MulDiv(

                    Printer()->PageHeight,

                    Screen->PixelsPerInch,

                    GetDeviceCaps(Printer()->Handle, LOGPIXELSY)

                  );

for (int i = 1; i <= 100; ++i)

{

  s.sprintf("line: %d", i);

  RichView1->AddNL(s, rvsDefStyle, 0);

  RichView1->Format();

  RichView1->GetItemCoords(RichView1->ItemCount - 1, left, top);

  if (top > page_height)

  {

    RichView1->DeleteItems(RichView1->ItemCount - 1, 1);

    break;

  }

}

RichView1->Format();

Why is there a difference of 8 lines?

Thanks,

Martin
