[64Bit] Printer Driver Issue


Question

Hey there,

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?

Any help is appreciated :)
