Hi.
Strange issue with GEF printing. Running 3.3M6 to make it possible to use
print on Linux, and testing the Logic example (as well as my own efforts).
I have to print to a PDF since network printers does not work (but that is
another issue probably Linux/setup related). And the resulting PDF
contains some 20000 empty pages, and the file is huge. The same thing
happens with my own editor code as well as standard Logic example.
I realize that this could be a platform issue as well, but I figured I
start here since the problem primarily seems to be in GEF, printing text
documents to PDFs works like a charm.

Anthony,
need to check GTK version at work tomorrow, but I'm quite sure I'm >=
2.10 because I think that you don't even get the possibility to print
any documents whatsoever on older GTK+ version (Print option is dimmed).
Will see what I can dig out, but would be nice if someone with a recent
Linux installation could do the same test because I'm restricted to a
quite old release at work and no possibilities to change this.
thanks

Made some tests today, implemented print support on Windows in my
editor. Works great, both on 3.2.2 and 3.3RC4. But same code fails on
Linux, 3.3RC4. Huge amount of empty pages gets printed. Same with the
logic example.
So, should I file a bug report on this? What info is needed?
regards
/Johan

Hi Johan,
Please do raise a Bugzilla. No clue what the issue has been as nobody has
had a chance to look at Linux printing.
Cheers...
