wow, thanks for that :) i didnt know about that widget demo thing, its very useful :)

It all appears to work now, my canvas prints to postscript form, almost perfectly! the biggest thing which would go on it, is luckily in perfect proportions for an A4 sheet! The only problem i am still having is with the lpr command...

lpr -S localhost or 127.0.0.1 -P LPT1 FILENAME

which its having problems with (Error: print server unreachable or specified printer does not exist.). Howevetr im sure its only a matter of time before i work this out! And the fact it is getting this far anyway means that it is likely to work once it finds te correct place! :)

Thanks alot!
