Not sure if anyone can help, well Google ain't helping.
We are having trouble with CreateCompatibleDC() under Windows 64bit. The call keeps failing when the driver is called from a 32Bit app running under Win64. Now the documentations states:
If a 32-bit application is running on a 64-bit version of the Microsoft Windows operating system, a printer driver plug-in that is running in the context of the Splwow64.exe thunking process should not call the GDI CreateDC function; this call will fail.MSDN
Fair enough, but there is no workaround or suggestion round this?
