What's the best approach to printing/reporting from WPF?
- by Matt Hamilton
I have an upcoming project which will have to be able to print simple reports from its data. It'll be WPF-based, and I'm wondering which way to go.
I know that WPF introduces its own printing technology (based on XPS) which looks quite easy to use. However, part of me wonders whether it would just be easier to use the ReportViewer control and embed it in a Windows Forms host control, since that will give users the ability to export to a variety of formats as well as print.
Has anyone had any experience with printing/reporting from WPF? Which direction would you recommend?
