+@page overview_unixprinting Printing Under Unix (GTK+)
- Printing under Unix has always been a cause of problems as Unix
- does not provide a standard way to display text and graphics
- on screen and print it to a printer using the same application
- programming interface - instead, displaying on screen is done
- via the X11 library while printing has to be done with using
- PostScript commands. This was particularly difficult to handle
- for the case of fonts with the result that only a selected
- number of application could offer WYSIWYG under Unix. Equally,
- wxWidgets offered its own printing implementation using PostScript
- which never really matched the screen display.
- Starting with version 2.8.X, the GNOME project provides printing
- support through the libgnomeprint and libgnomeprintui libraries
- by which especially the font problem is mostly solved. Beginning
- with version 2.5.4, the GTK+ port of wxWidgets can make use of
- these libraries if wxWidgets is configured accordingly and if the
- libraries are present. You need to configure wxWidgets with the
- @e configure --with-gnomeprint switch and your application will
- then search for the GNOME print libraries at runtime. If they
- are found, printing will be done through these, otherwise the
- application will fall back to the old PostScript printing code.
- Note that the application will not require the GNOME print libraries
- to be installed in order to run (there will be no dependency on
- these libraries).
- In version GTK+ 2.10, support for printing has been added to GTK+
- itself. Beginning with version wxWidgets 2.9.X, the GTK+ port of
- wxWidgets can make use of this feature
- if wxWidgets is configured accordingly and if the GTK+ version is = 2.10.
- You need to configure wxWidgets with the @e configure --with-gtkprint
- switch and your application will then search for the GTK+ print support
- at runtime. If it is found, printing will be done through GTK+, otherwise the
- application will fall back to GNOME printing support if it is available or,
- if it isn't, to the old PostScript printing code.
- Note that the application will not require a GTK+ version = 2.10
- to be installed in order to run (there will be no dependency on
- this version).
