Best way to add printing support to an RCP app? [message #528266]

My app currently uses a custom editor for an EMF model that is stored in an xmi file. I'd like to be able to print this data according to a predefined format. I saw the org.eclipse.swt.printing, but that looks like it could be quite painful to use. Is there an easy way to add printing support to my RCP app? How does the default print option eclipse provides for text files work (what plugin provides that functionality)?

Thanks,
Ryan

http://www.eclipse.org/nebula/widgets/paperclips/paperclips. php or you
create a PDF e.g. using iText and send this one to the printer.
