XP themes

I use XP manifest in my application, so all controls are drawn in XP style.
When i place them inside TRichViewEdit they appear in XP-style too.
This is ok.

But when i use TWinControl.PrintTo method of TRichViewEdit to paint it on custom canvas (f.e. TImage.Canvas) all controls are printed in old, Windows95/98 style.

Please help. I don't understand why it happens.
Is there alternative method of TRichViewEdit printing that prints embedded controls in XP style?

No, sorry.
You can draw XP border yourself, and then draw TRichView without border (see Demos\Delphi\Assorted\Graphics\ToImage\ how to draw TRichView on Canvas)
