That is what I meant in the wxPrint module docstring. I tried to find
workarounds, but AFAIR success was partial.
Tk-based preview works Ok, but of course it would be weird (if at all
possible) to use Tk-based window in wx-based application.
Another possibility would be to implement HTML renderer for printouts
and use wxHtmlWindow to preview output.

Is it cross-platform yet? Last I knew it was based on ActiveX.
Anyhow, it would be welcome addition to the package. Please explore the
possibility if you are interested.
