couldn't agree more about the recommendations to use SVG/inkscape/etc...unless you have a specific need to use PDF throughout. SVG has a very good (in my opinion) font creation/description ability, geared towards calligraphy. the hardest line to type correctly is: stty erase ^H	[reply]

If I wrote/generated SVG in an XML file, how do I print that nicely?	[reply]

Inkscape can print an SVG file from the command line - either directly, using the "default printer", whatever that is for your system: `"$inkscape" -p $filename` [download] ... or by exporting into a PS or EPS or PDF file: `"$inkscape" --export-ps=$targetname $filename` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]

Open the svg up in Gimp, and use it's Print dialog. Perl Gtk2 has some Print dialog modules too. Gimp has a good dialog and paper sizer. I'm not really a human, but I play one on earth. Cogito ergo sum a bum	[reply]
