Answer 1

In C++ MFC you have this already done and available for you by MFC framework.

In C# and .NET framework not sure what you can do with the printdocument class. I used devxpress xtrareports in many projects and it pays off very well. Users love the ribbon print preview and you really get stunning ms word like print preview UI with zero coding. except a call to myReport.ShowRibbonPrintPreview .

Answer 2

From the c# tag i guess that it's not a problem if you use .Net framework. In this case this is what you want.
