Okay, so will ignore Words for now. But same problem with Karbon/Stage/Flow. In Karbon I can at least set the canvas color. But that's it. Will the pagetool be reused outside of Words? > You can work on the rendering/loading/saving part of it though Mh, less interesting if there is no UI to control it :) So what about the other question, might have been ignored due to my double posting, but even more interesting to me, so repasting here: Then I wonder if it possible to control if the background should be printed or not. The attribute "style:print-content" seems not applyable, did I see correctly? Or is the page background never printed anyway? I have a certain use-case in mind: I want to print with black color on a given sheet of paper, either a pre- printed formular or just some coloured paper. And I want to see already on the screen how the print-out will look like on the printed paper. I.e. the background should look like the paper/sheet, but just for display, when printing just the stuff I added should be turned into burned toner/dried ink. If there is no such attribute, I want to propose that we at least create one within Calligra (and work on getting this in the spec).
