Image Printing

[lucas555]

Hey guys,

Is it possible to take an image of type .jpg and convert it somehow to show it on a receipt, via Basic4ppc ?

The application that I created does multiple takes and 1 of them is to take the signature of the client, When the client signs it will save it in a .jpg File. Now when printing the bill of the client, The clients
wants to see the signature on the receipt ?

Is it possible to do it ?

Thanks

Are you already printing text? On desktop only? Using which library? (Full details are helpful!)

I have done it with html.
So create a html page and then print it with a htmlprinter. Works fine!

With that hint I did a quick search of the "additional libraries" and found http://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/pretty-printing-library.1080/. It allows, on the desktop of course, images to be pasted into a document and then be printed.

yes but the text formatting possibilities are very basic (in compare with html)
