Solved Printing large text on multiple pages

Hello everyone,
I'm developing a program for printing plain text. My code works successfully with small text. However, with large text, only the first page is printed and the last line is cropped.

@R-Kagirov Hi,
the simplest way would be to wrap up your text in QTextDocument (there is a setter for plain text too), init the printer as usual and use QTextDocument::drawContents() - this way you don't need to worry about pagination, it is all done for you.Edit: corrected a typo.
