This is the examples directory inside libgnomeprintui. If you are going to be running this examples I recommend setting your default printer to print to file, since there isn't any gui for this yet. You can modify libgnomeprint/data/printers/Generic.printer and change the line that says: <Key Id="Backend" Value="lpr"/> to <Key Id="Backend" Value="file"/> This examples contains code for both libgnomeprint and libgnomeprintui. To compile them you can use "make" or "make example_0x". To debug them inside gdb you need to run them with "gdb .libs/example_0x". Here is a brief description of what each example does. <NON-GUI> example_01.c ------------ Smallest non-gui gnome-print application. Shows basic GnomePrintJob & GnomePrintContext usage. example_02.c ------------ Printing Images. Prints a generated image from memory, an image from disk and from a pixbuf. example_03.c (09) ------------ Using fonts, basic font usage. example_04.c ------------ Using utf-8 strings, printing non-western and acented characters. example_05.c ------------ Basic GnomePrintConfig usage, sets an option for GnomePrintConfig to change the default output filename and document titlem, it queries the print orientation and dumps it to the console. <GUI> example_06.c ------------ Basic usage of a GnomePrintDialog example_07.c (not yet implmented) ------------ GnomePrintDialog range usage example_08.c ------------ Appending custom widgets to a GnomePrintDialog. This example also dumps a GnomePrintConfig tree when the "Dump Tree" button is clicked (used for debugging purposes) example_09.c ------------ Serializing and de-serializing a GnomePrintConfig object. The print dialog remembers its configuration from the last time it was used. <GUI + GLADE> example_10.c ------------ Example with an app, dialog, setup and print preview example_11.c ------------ Printing with gnome_print_job_set_file. In this mode, applications generate the postscript output themselves and use gnome-print as a print system abstraction layer and as a print gui library. example_12.c ------------ Shows how to add app specific GnomePrintConfig nodes and how to attach widgets to configure them TODO: ---- - Add an example printable area example, with N-up printing.
