win32 printing

[todd <taf2 lehigh edu>]

Hi,
   I'm working on a small application for a group of nurses at John 
Hopkins, (one being my girl friend :)).
They need an application to print out time sheets used for keeping track
of when patients need treatment.  The actual logic of the application is 
very simple.  The tricky part is figuring out how to print (at least for 
me having
zero experience doing any kind of printing in win32 or linux).   I've 
been doing some reading; learning the different methods for printing in 
win32.

I've put together a small application that looks like the following

I think what I need to do to print is the following:

1.  draw to a GdkPixmap
2. get the GdkPixbuf from the Pixmap
3. pass the GdkPixbuf ( which I believe is just raw image data? ) to the 
function described here 
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN;138594


I think my reasons for being unsure about how to proceed are because 
win32 refers to images as bitmaps while gtk+ refers to them as pixmaps.  
Are they the same?
And are they interchangeable?

thanks,

todd
