These guys doing openoffice, believe that in order to support printing, they must take it upon themselves to standardize printing across all unices!! So, rather than write in some code to convert to PS and use lpr to print (like most unices.) they would rather not have you print at all until they have a final solution. If you ask me, it's about the dumbest thing I've ever heard of, but then again they are almost all former sun employee's, so they may not be used to they ways of "users" who like "features" like the ability to PRINT! Just my $.02. If you can convert your stuff to PS and print that way, I would recommend it. > >Thank You, > Ben Kochie (ben at nerp.net) > > "Unix is user friendly, Its just picky about its friends." > >_______________________________________________ >tclug-list mailing list >tclug-list at mn-linux.org >https://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list Good luck, -- Thomas J.
