I am tring to print charts in Java 1.6 on Windows and getting poor results (blurry images) There seems to be no way to force rasterization to be done in the printer rather than by Java, even sun.java2d.print.pipeline=pdl has no effect. I could not find an authoritative list of which features of Java2D must be avoided so that the rasterizer will not be called; I only know that, e.g., alpha color is one of them. So, where can I find a list?
http://java.sun.com/products/java-media/2D/reference/faqs/index.html#Q_What_are_the_causes_of_large_s Since (surprise) 'pdl' didn't help try 'raster', which is the opposite of what you think is helpful but might be interesting. Failing that you'd need to submit a small self-contained test case along with printer driver info etc.
Furthermore it seems this decision reflects late 1990s thinking re. the capabilities and speed of some printers. Isn't it time to revisit?
No, its the late eighties Microsoft APIs that limit what we can do. -phil.
