Re: Printing library

[Lauris Kaplinski <lauris ariman ee>]

It would be extremely nice to add 2 convenience functions to gnome-print:

gnome_print_vpath (GnomePrintContext *, ArtVpath *);
gnome_print_bpath (GnomePrintContext *, ArtBpath *);

I bet these are implemented in almost every program doing printing canvas
objects and putiing these in library would save them some switch()
statements (35 lines of code in sodipodi).

Probably also:

gnome_print_art_pixbuf (GnomePrintContext *, ArtPixBuf *)

which handles different depths, and removes alpha :-( if print context
cannot handle this.

These should'nt probably be methods, as they are implemented simply as
wrappers.
