A guess only -- I'll bet that if you use the PD_RETURNDC flag that,
internally, the PrintDlg routine picks up the option to print to file along
with the file name and uses it in the CreateDC.  Since you're not using
this it isn't happening (I know we went through this before, perhaps you
can restructure the DeleteDC logic so that you can use PD_RETURNDC).

You could examine this flag in the PRINTDATA structure after the call to
PrintDlg, but damned if I can see a way to get at the filename!  Perhaps
it is in the DEVNAMES block, immediately after the physical output name and
you just have to point to there via wOutputOffset plus the string length.
