WINDOWS

Summary:

SYMPTOMS

When an application uses region and clipping functions on a printer

device context (DC) to create a complex printing area, some of the

clipping functions have no effect on the printed page.

CAUSE

The Windows Graphics Device Interface (GDI) is running out of heap

space.

RESOLUTION

The application must perform some additional steps to simplify the

drawing. Verify that calculated regions are freed between function

calls.
