如何使用格式将Powershell脚本输出发送到打印机？

问题描述

我需要将脚本内生成的脚本输出（基本上是按类别过滤的Outlook日历中的议程）发送给打印机。为了便于阅读，我希望将其格式化。至少将一些单词加粗，斜体，或者更改字体。 文本是从一个自定义对象组装而成的，可能看起来像这样：

text = 
@"
Monday

Meeting with Joe : 07:00 - 08:00
Meeting with Ann : 8:30 - 09:00

Tuesday

No meetings
"@

理想情况下，我希望它打印出这样的内容：

---

星期一

与乔开会：07:00-08:00

与Ann开会：8:30-09:00

星期二

没有会议

---

到目前为止，我所拥有的（将代码用于提取日历事件除外）：

text = 
@"
Monday

Meeting with Joe : 07:00 - 08:00
Meeting with Ann : 8:30 - 09:00

Tuesday

No meetings
"@

Add-Type -AssemblyName System.Drawing
$PrintDocument = New-Object System.Drawing.Printing.PrintDocument
$PrintDocument.PrinterSettings.PrinterName = 'Microsoft Print to PDF'
$PrintDocument.DocumentName = "PipeHow Print Job"
$PrintDocument.DefaultPageSettings.PaperSize = $PrintDocument.PrinterSettings.PaperSizes | Where-Object { $_.PaperName -eq 'Letter' }
$PrintDocument.DefaultPageSettings.Landscape = $true

$PrintPageHandler =
{
    param([object]$sender,[System.Drawing.Printing.PrintPageEventArgs]$ev)

    $linesPerPage = 0
    $yPos = 0
    $count = 0
    $leftMargin = $ev.MarginBounds.Left
    $topMargin = $ev.MarginBounds.Top
    $line = $null

    $printFont = New-Object System.Drawing.Font "Arial",10

    # Calculate the number of lines per page.
    $linesPerPage = $ev.MarginBounds.Height / $printFont.GetHeight($ev.Graphics)

    # Print each line of the file.
    while ($count -lt $linesPerPage -and (($line = ($text -split "`r`n")[$count]) -ne $null))
    {
        $yPos = $topMargin + ($count * $printFont.GetHeight($ev.Graphics))
        $ev.Graphics.DrawString($line,$printFont,[System.Drawing.Brushes]::Black,$leftMargin,$yPos,(New-Object System.Drawing.StringFormat))
        $count++
    }

    # If more lines exist,print another page.
    if ($line -ne $null) 
    {
        $ev.HasMorePages = $true
    }
    else
    {
        $ev.HasMorePages = $false
    }
}

$PrintDocument.add_PrintPage($PrintPageHandler)
$PrintDocument.Print()

我从Internet上相应的文章中摘录了

，通过逐行读取多行字符串来替换文件中的StremReader。 我该如何格式化文本？像我在此处或在HTML中一样，在文本中添加一些标记？然后在$PrintPageHandler中解析它们？我会为此使用$printFont还是在StringFormat中使用DrawString？

请给我一些指导以继续挖掘...

解决方法

嗯，因为您有远见，所以我假设您也有Word。使用Word COM对象是我想到要做的唯一真正简单的方法。

#didn't know how you generated the calender info,so I took liberties here,using nested hashtables
$calendarStuff = @{

    week1 = @{
        Monday =  @(
            "Meeting with Joe : 07:00 - 08:00","Meeting with Ann : 8:30 - 09:00"
        );
        Tuesday = @("No meetings")
    }

}

#path where to save the doc
$docPath = "C:\temp\printTestThing.docx"
# instantiation of the com-object. It's by default not visible
$wordCom = New-Object -ComObject Word.Application
# uncomment this to see what's going on
#$wordCom.visible = $true

# creates and selects the word document we'll be working with
$doc = $wordCom.Documents.Add()
$selection = $wordcom.Selection

# go through and grab each week
foreach($week in $calendarStuff.Keys)
{
    # go through each week and grab the days
    foreach($day in $calendarStuff[$week].keys)
    {
        # Apply the style 'Heading 1' to what we're about to type
        $selection.Style = "Heading 1"
        # type out what the day is
        $selection.TypeText($day)
        # make a paragraph
        $selection.TypeParagraph()
        # switch the style back to normal
        $selection.Style = "Normal"
        foreach($thing in $calendarStuff[$week][$day])
        {
            # type out what the event is,prepending it with a 'tab' character
            $selection.TypeText("`t" + $thing)
            # make a paragraph
            $selection.TypeParagraph()
        }
    }

}
# print the doc
Start-Process -FilePath $docPath -Verb print

您可以根据需要添加更多自定义方式，但是希望这是您需要的催化剂。
