  1. Using XPSDrv Print Drivers To Extend Windows Print Functionality Feng YuanTechnical Lead – DevelopmentDigital Documents Platform and Solutions

  2. Agenda • Filter Pipeline Extensibility • Extensibility Scenarios • Advanced Color • Configuration • Notifications • Sample Filter Walkthroughs Assumes familiarity with XPSDrv architecture and interfaces

  3. Filter Pipeline Extensibility • The filter pipeline is designed for modular and extensible IHV/ISV implementations • Primary extensibility points • Generic filters • Configuration DLL • New DrvDocumentEvents events • PrintTicket control • Filter service publishing • Notification • Custom Inter Filter Communicators (IFC)

  4. Extensibility Scenario Overview

  5. Windows Photo Gallery prints Windows Media Photo image to XPSDrv print driver for 8-color inkjet photo printer Scenario: Advanced Color

  6. Scenario: Advanced Color • XPS Documents support high dynamic range, wide gamut vector and image content • Using system services, filters can process rich color data to best match printed output to user intent and device capabilities • Windows Color System (WCS) – Enables extensive color conversion • Windows Imaging Components (WIC) – Image format support for Windows Media Photo and other XPS image formats • PrintTicket – Supports an array of color processing keywords to enable consistent and unambiguous color control between app and device

  7. Scenario: Advanced Color Data Flow • Windows Photo Gallery allows user selection of print settings • MXDW driver encapsulates Windows Media Photo image and print settings (as PrintTicket) in XPS Document • Filter process XPS file, decoding/transforming image, saving image to JPG format

  8. Advanced Color Filter

  9. Color Filter: Main Method HRESULT CColorFilter::StartOperation(void) { HRESULT hr =SetupColorTransform(L“wsRGB.cdmp"); CComPtr<IUnknown> pUnk; while (SUCCEEDED(hr = m_pProvider->GetXpsPart(&pUnk))) { CComPtr<IXpsDocument> pXD; CComPtr<IFixedPage> pFP; if (SUCCEEDED(pUnk.QueryInterface(&pXD))) { hr = m_pConsumer->SendXpsDocument(pXD); } else if ... else if (SUCCEEDED(pUnk.QueryInterface(&pFP))) { hr = ProcessFixedPage(pFP); hr = m_pConsumer->SendFixedPage(pFP); } } m_pConsumer->CloseSender(); m_pPrintPipeManager->FilterFinished(); DeleteColorTransform(m_hColorTrans); return hr; }

  10. Color Filter: Setup Transformation HPROFILE OpenColorProfile(const WCHAR * pszProfileName) { PROFILE profile = {PROFILE_FILENAME, (PVOID) pszProfileName, (DWORD) (wcslen(pszProfileName) * sizeof(WCHAR)) }; returnWcsOpenColorProfile(&profile, NULL, NULL, PROFILE_READ, FILE_SHARE_READ, OPEN_EXISTING, 0); } HRESULT SetupColorTransform(const WCHAR * pszDestProfileName) { HRESULT hr = S_OK;HPROFILE hProfile[2]; hProfile[0] = OpenColorProfile(L"wscRGB.cdmp"); hProfile[1] = OpenColorProfile(pszDestProfileName); DWORD intents = INTENT_ABSOLUTE_COLORIMETRIC; m_hColorTrans =CreateMultiProfileTransform(hProfile, 2, &intents, 1, WCS_ALWAYS | BEST_MODE, INDEX_DONT_CARE); CloseColorProfile(hProfile[0]); CloseColorProfile(hProfile[1]); return hr; }

  11. Color Filter: Page Processing HRESULT CColorFilter::ProcessFixedPage(IFixedPage* pFP) { HRESULT hr = S_OK; CComPtr<IPrintWriteStream> pWriter; if (SUCCEEDED(hr = pFP->GetWriteStream(&pWriter))) { CComPtr<IPrintReadStream> pReader; if (SUCCEEDED(hr = pFP->GetStream(&pReader))) { CXmlFilter filter(pWriter, pReader);// XML filter while (filter.GetToken()) if (wcscmp(filter.m_token, L"ImageSource") == 0) { filter.GetToken(); // = filter.GetToken(); // URI for ImageSource ConvertImage(filter.m_token, filter.m_tokenlen, COUNTOF(filter.m_token), pFP); } } } pWriter->Close(); } return hr; }

  12. Color Filter: Transform Image HRESULT ConvertWriteImage(pStream, imageUri, pFixedPage) { HRESULT hr = S_OK; CComPtr<IUnknown> pRead; CComPtr<IPartImage> pImagePart; CComPtr<IPrintReadStream> pImageStream; if (SUCCEEDED(hr =pFixedPage->GetPagePart(imageUri, &pRead)) && SUCCEEDED(hr = pRead.QueryInterface(&pImagePart)) && SUCCEEDED(hr =pImagePart->GetStream(&pImageStream))) { CImage src;CImage dst; CPrintStream2IStream readStream(pImageStream, NULL); hr=src.Load(& readStream, m_pImagingFactory); hr=dst.Create(src.m_Width,src.m_Height,BM_BGRTRIPLETS); TranslateBitmapBits(m_hColorTrans, src.m_pBuffer, src.m_icmFormat, src.m_Width, src.m_Height, src.m_Stride, dst.m_pBuffer, dst.m_icmFormat, dst.m_Stride, NULL, NULL); CPrintStream2IStream writeStream(NULL, pStream); hr =dst.Save(& writeStream, m_pImagingFactory); } return hr; }

  13. During printing, XPSDrv configuration module optimizes PrintTicket settings and provides additional services to XPSDrv filters Scenario: Configuration

  14. Scenario: Configuration • The XPSDrv architecture supports the ability to customize the configuration data and offer additional configuration services • DrvDocumentEvents – Using new document events, XPSDrv configuration modules can pre-process PrintTicket setting sent by Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications • Filter Services – The configuration module can publish helper services for use at print time by filters

  15. Scenario: Configuration • Example Data Flow • User prints from a WPF application • DocumentEvents are intercepted by the configuration module and PrintTickets are added or modified • When filters are processing the XPS file, the filter queries a configuration service to assist in constraint resolution

  16. Configuration Architecture

  17. Configuration Module DOCEVENT_FILTER * p = (DOCEVENT_FILTER*) pvOut; switch (iEsc){ caseDOCUMENTEVENT_XPS_QUERYFILTER: if (p->cElementsAllocated >= 7) { p->aDocEventCall[0] = DOCUMENTEVENT_XPS_ADDFIXEDDOCUMENTSEQUENCEPRINTTICKETPRE; p->aDocEventCall[1] = DOCUMENTEVENT_XPS_ADDFIXEDDOCUMENTSEQUENCEPRINTTICKETPOST; ... p->cElementsReturned = 7; }else { p->cElementsNeeded = 7;} break; caseDOCUMENTEVENT_XPS_ADDFIXEDDOCUMENTSEQUENCEPRINTTICKETPRE: *((PrintPropertiesCollection **) pvOut) = ReplacePT((PrintPropertiesCollection *) pvIn); break; caseDOCUMENTEVENT_XPS_ADDFIXEDDOCUMENTSEQUENCEPRINTTICKETPOST: DeleteCollection(*((PrintPropertiesCollection **) pvIn)); break; }

  18. Configuration Filter HRESULT STDMETHODCALLTYPE StartOperation(VOID) { HRESULT hr; CComPtr<IPartPrintTicket> pPrintTicket; while (SUCCEEDED(hr = m_pProvider->GetXpsPart(&pUnk)) { CComPtr<IXpsDocument> pXD; CComPtr<IFixedDocumentSequence> pFDS; if (SUCCEEDED(pUnk.QueryInterface(&pXD))) { hr = m_pConsumer->SendXpsDocument(pXD); } else if (SUCCEEDED(pUnk.QueryInterface(&pFDS))) { if (pPrintTicket == NULL) { pFDS->GetPrintTicket(& pPrintTicket); } hr = m_pConsumer->SendFixedDocumentSequence(pFDS); } ... } AddPage(pPrintTicket); ... return hr; }

  19. Configuration Filter HRESULT CConfigurationFilter::AddPage(IPartPrintTicket * pPrintTicket) { CComPtr<IFixedPage> pNewPage; CComPtr<IPrintWriteStream> pNewPageMarkupStream; CComPtr<IPartFont> pNewFont; CComPtr<IPrintWriteStream> pNewFontStream; m_pConsumer->GetNewEmptyPart(L"newpage.xaml", IID_IFixedPage, reinterpret_cast<void **>(&pNewPage), &pNewPageMarkupStream); m_pConsumer->GetNewEmptyPart(L"new.ttf", IID_IPartFont, reinterpret_cast<void **>(&pNewFont), &pNewFontStream); AddFontToPage(L"new.ttf", pNewFont, pNewFontStream, pNewPage); CComPtr<IPrintReadStream> ptStream; pPrintTicket->GetStream(& ptStream); AddTextToPage(pNewPageMarkupStream, ptStream, m_pCoreHelper,"new.ttf"); return S_OK; }

  20. Configuration Filter HRESULT AddTextToPage(IPrintWriteStream *pPageMarkupStream, IPrintReadStream * ptStream, IPrintCoreHelperUni * pPrintHelper, const char * pFont) { CXpsWriter writer(pPageMarkupStream); writer.Write("<FixedPage Width=\"816\" Height=\"1056\" xmlns=" "\"http://schemas.microsoft.com/xps/2005/06\" xml:lang=\"en-US\">"); { CPrintTicketSaxHandler sax(writer, pFont, black); CComPtr<ISAXXMLReader> pSaxRdr; pSaxRdr.CoCreateInstance(CLSID_SAXXMLReader60); pSaxRdr->putContentHandler(& sax); pfp::PrintReadStreamToSeqStream reader(ptStream); pSaxRdr->parse(CComVariant(& reader)); } { CComPtr<IStream> pStream; pPrintHelper->CreateDefaultGDLSnapshot(0, & pStream); CGDLSaxHandler sax(writer, pFont, black); CComPtr<ISAXXMLReader> pSaxRdr; pSaxRdr.CoCreateInstance(CLSID_SAXXMLReader60); pSaxRdr->putContentHandler(& sax); pSaxRdr->parse(CComVariant(pStream); } return writer.Write("</FixedPage>"); }

  21. While processing a print job, a filter sends async notifications to a custom status monitor Scenario: Notifications

  22. Scenario: Notifications • The hierarchy of XPS Documents and the modular nature of XPSDrv filters facilitate incremental process that can be communicated using system services • Async Notification – The Windows Vista spooler includes an async notificationengine for communication and UI messages • XPS IFC – The structured nature of theXPS Document and the XPS Inter-filter Communicator identify key steps in document processing

  23. Scenario: Notifications • Example Data Flow • As an XPS Document is rendered in filters, rendering progress is communicated through notification events dispatched by the filter

  24. Notification Architecture

  25. Notification Filter STDMETHODIMPXpsFilter::InitializeFilter( __in IInterFilterCommunicator *pIfc, __in IPrintPipelinePropertyBag *pIPropertyBag, __in IPrintPipelineManagerControl *pIPipelineControl ) { ... VARIANT var; VariantInit(&var); pIPropertyBag->GetProperty(XPS_FP_PROGRESS_REPORT, &var); Tools::SmartPtr<IUnknown> pUnk = V_UNKNOWN(&var); VariantClear(&var); pUnk->QueryInterface(IID_IPrintPipelineProgressReport, reinterpret_cast<void **>(&m_pProgressReport)); ... }

  26. Notification Filter HRESULTXpsFilter::ProcessFixedDoc(__in void *pVoid) { Tools::SmartPtr<IFixedDocument> pIFixedDocument; pIFixedDocument.Attach(static_cast<IFixedDocument *>(pVoid)); HRESULT hRes = m_pXpsConsumer->SendFixedDocument(pIFixedDocument); if (SUCCEEDED(hRes)) { m_pProgressReport->ReportProgress(XpsJob_FixedDocumentAdded); } return hRes; } HRESULTXpsFilter::ProcessFixedPage(__in void *pVoid) { Tools::SmartPtr<IFixedPage> pIFixedPage; pIFixedPage.Attach(static_cast<IFixedPage *>(pVoid)); HRESULT hRes = m_pXpsConsumer->SendFixedPage(pIFixedPage); if (SUCCEEDED(hRes)) { m_pProgressReport->ReportProgress(XpsJob_FixedPageAdded); } return hRes; }
