Hi Chris..

Yeah,what a headache!!!

I'm currently using matplotlib to produce graphs in a gtk app. It's capable of /saving /in .svg format,/displaying /? No way!!

I've tried out some of the Tim Golden tips and, as nice as they are,when you try and send an .svg file to a win32 printer using win32api and it just burps and says no thanks.

win32api.ShellExecute (0, "print", svg_file_name, None, ".", 0) = fuggedaboudit!!!

I'm at my wits end as there appears to be no simple way to perform this triviality!!

Don't know what to do.

Hi,

Check out Tim Golden's site for info on printing in win32:
http://tgolden.sc.sabren.com/python/win32_how_do_i/print.html

I am currently using the PIL method to print PNG files.  There is a win32all
limitation in the print dialog that makes it (currently) impossible to use it
to provide an interface to users to select printer settings.

A prerequisite would be having a SVG rasterizer.  Anti-Grain Geometry might do
this for you.  There is no SVG gtk-pixbuf loader for win32 that I know of so
you can't have GTK do this for you.  If you are displaying SVG files on win32
in GTK please let me know how so that I can do it too :)

Hi.

Does anyone know of a convenient pythonic way to print svg files on win32?
