如何在Java Swing的每个页面中用页脚打印整个JPanel

Question

Ok it may simple. But can't figure it out.

I have a JPanel that contains a JTable. JTable contains few rows, Sometime more, because the table model i push into it depends on database.

However, i don't use any JScollpane that enclose my JTable. As a result, when JTable contains more and more row, parent JPanel automatically resized its height. That is working fine.

Problem is i want to print whole JPanel at a time. may be it needs several page, i don't care. I can print JTable directly with a header and footer. But in my case JPanel contains some important component like JLable. So, there is no other way to avoid printing of JPanel.

I search several online link, everywhere i found a suggestion to implements printable interface.

so i implements printable in my class and overload print....

@Override
public int print(Graphics arg0, PageFormat arg1, int arg2) throws PrinterException {

    Graphics2D g2d = (Graphics2D) arg0;
    g2d.translate((int) arg1.getImageableX(), (int) arg1.getImageableY());

    float pageWidth = (float) arg1.getImageableWidth();
    float pageHeight = (float) arg1.getImageableHeight();

    float imageHeight = (float) paintPanel.getHeight();
    float imageWidth = (float) paintPanel.getWidth();

    float scaleFactor = Math.min((float) pageWidth / (float) imageWidth, (float) pageHeight / (float) imageHeight);

    int scaledWidth = (int) (((float) imageWidth) * scaleFactor);

    int scaledHeight = (int) (((float) imageHeight) * scaleFactor);

    BufferedImage canvas = new BufferedImage(paintPanel.getWidth(), paintPanel.getHeight(), BufferedImage.TYPE_INT_RGB);
    Graphics2D gg = canvas.createGraphics();
    paintPanel.paint(gg);
    Image img = canvas;
    g2d.drawImage(img, 0, 0, scaledWidth, scaledHeight, null);
    return Printable.PAGE_EXISTS;
}

Its not working.

Another problem that is my second problem. I want to place a footer JPanel in every page. So how could it possible.

Help me please. Thanks.

So based on this example which demonstrates how to print a component across multiple pages, I modified it to allow for the printing of a footer.

This example draws directly via the Graphics context, but conceptually, the process would be simple enough to paint using a supplied JComponent of some sort.
