Re: [OpenMap Users] printing with openmap

Hi Johan,

If I'm right, I think I was at the origin of the MapBeanPrinter class.
I've not the code here right now, but if my memory is correct, the only
think the class does is to use the java classic printer API's PrinterJob
and to rescale the image in order to fit it on the page.

Did you try to use another printer and/or driver?

On which platform are you working? I've to confess that I only tested it
on my Linux box...

Please feel free to contact me directly, as it seems that we are located
in the same small country :-)

Best regards
