[wxperl-users] wxPerl and Printing

[Mark W. <ma...@ne...>]

Hi All,

This is a fairly broad topic, but I am interested to hear what
experiences other users have had with printing from wxPerl applications,
as well as PDF generation.

I find the whole printing architecture cumbersome and difficult to use.
I know that there are the wxHTML classes to use, but I find these quite
restrictive without the ability to install custom tag handlers to
enhance or override existing handlers.

I have researched external routines/applications like Crystal, FOP,
RenderX, etc, ad nauseum but nothing suffices due to functionality or
cost restrictions.

I have some very basic print modules that I have battled to setup but
find adding new functionality a real test.

Has anyone else been down this path? I would be interested to hear where
you ended up.

Regards
Mark
