Hi Neil, |

...my "I am no native english speaker" hit me again it seems... ;) |

With "physical printing" I meant the step which "put it on |
| 26 |
paper"...or in other words: Everything which involves the device |
| 27 |
"printer" (...hrrmmm...NOT anything in /dev/....the thing on the |
| 28 |
desktop, which has 9 needles in the past...;) 8) ) |

For creating PDF I use either TeX and friends. Or gimp or |
| 31 |
similiar (Image-/Graphicsmagick). |

Best regards, |
