Printing is always a pain from GUIs and wxWidgets support for it is a striong argument in its favour. For most of my GUI needs printing is rarely an issue and if I do need to print I gmerate an HTML document and print that via the browser. But thats not a great solution where precision is needed I agree.

I'd love to make use of all the time I invested over the years learning Tcl/Tk and Tkinter, but this doesn't look like there's a good solution (such as support for writing to the Windows GDI on Windows, although the PostScript output is likely adequate on Unix and Macs). Is there something people are using in that space for Tk? -- Steve Willoughby | Using billion-dollar satellites st...@alchemy.com | to hunt for Tupperware.
