If you override OnPrintPage in GridPrintDocument, you can test ev.HasMorePages to see if you are on the last page printed. Currently, there is no simple way to know in advance how may pages will be printed. Here is a sample that prints headers and footers with page numbers using an OnPrintPage override.

but I will draw some line on the last page ,the sample you supply me can ont get the last page.is has any ways to get it ?

In your override on OnPrintPage, if ev.HasMorePages is false, then you are on the last page, and you can do the last page drawing at that point.

I'm sorry !
how can I get the grid height in the last page??I will draw a line on the last row's bottom border

I do not know of a good way to do this in general (locating the position on the print page of the last row).

But if what you want to do is to draw a line on the border of the bottom row, you can do that from within the grid using PrepareViewStyleInfo.

private void gridControl1_PrepareViewStyleInfo(object sender, GridPrepareViewStyleInfoEventArgs e)
{
	if(this.gridControl1.PrintingMode && e.RowIndex == this.gridControl1.RowCount)
	{
		e.Style.Borders.Bottom = new GridBorder(GridBorderStyle.Solid, Color.Red, GridBorderWeight.Thick);
	}
}

I could not find a way to get the bottom of the grid in the OnPrintPage override. But you can get it in the PrepareViewStyleInfo event, and somehow make it available in OnPrintPage. Attached is a little sample using a static Form member to provide the value.

I don't know how to get it in the PrepareViewStyInfo event when it has multipage.and which sample did you point?

[Administrator]

Click the little disk download icon above my last response to get the sample. It has the PrepareViewStyleInfo event code in it.

It work well.
thanks again!
