Don,
You're absolutely right. Setting up a scaled picture box, then writing to
it makes it easy to print. As long as you keep the ScaleMode the same for
the box and the printer, you can basically just do a find/replace to switch
from picture to print.
The only place that's not true is when you're doing stuff like lines, etc.
and bitmaps. Since the resolution of the screen is so much different than
that of the printer, you can get some interesting shifts on the screen
image of your page or whatever. They're small, but can be significant in
the long run.
