Printing at bottom of page

I have a program that produces a calendar which

I would like to print at the bottom of a page so I can

place a picture at the top.



I use the following code to print the calendar:



CaptureScreen()

printDocument1.Print()



It works well, but prints the Calendar at

the top of the page. How can I move the

calendar to the bottom of the page?



Thanks

Rotate it 180 degrees before printing.

Andrew,



That sounds like a great solution and I have spent

the last day looking for a way to rotate a form and

have not found an example that can get me started.

The ROTATE Method leaves me out in the cold.



Any further help to get me started would be

Greatly appreciated.

Hopefully someone who /knows/ how to do this will chime in, but is the
CaptureScreen() procedure in your OP the same CaptureScreen() in the help
Q161299 [1]?

If so, then it looks to me like the easiest way is, rather than rotating the
image, just tell it the printer's top margin is half way down the page (or
whatever fits).

However, what sort of quality is the output at the moment? If it looks
pixellated then it might be better to produce the image in a Graphics object
using the methods in System.Drawing. Tedious maybe, but you'll get the best
possible output.
