All those are vectorial formats. > I thought pcbnew already exported to these formats (save for SVG). The "OpenGL printer" was just an example, and even then, if you match the resolution of the printer, pixel for pixel, I don't see the issue. Sure, a postscript printer would work better. Wait, kicad already does that.

At least vector exports use the same code path regardless of the OS. You don't end up in a situation where it works on *nix* but not on MS or vice-versa.
