A silly question

[darkangel]

I'm new to DelphiArea and would like to post a silly question:
RE:Tprintpreview
I wanna use it to preview my images before printing them out, however, my images are all like bmp,jpg or gif, how can I get them previewed on this component TPrintPreview, as I found it can only load ppv data. Thank you in adance.

preview.canvas.draw+F1

besides... you can print them on print preview canvas just like on normal printer canvas, isn't that nice?

Thanks for yr help, I use these codes:
....
bmp.LoadFromFile(opendialog.FileName);
printpreview.Canvas.Draw(0,0,bmp);
.....

however, there is an error as the subject, can you help fix it?
Could you please supply more detailed codes for me? I really apprecaite it.

before you draw execute method BeginDoc, and when you end execute EndDoc.
