The report code was all written SO LONG ago that NONE of the current developers really know it well. Indeed, most of the developers want to rewrite the whole reporting subsystem. But this is a MAJOR undertaking, and might need to pull in yet more dependencies. There was even a discussion on changing over to Gecko, but that would make gnucash depend on mozilla! > I'm trying to get this to work for 4 days now and being a small-business > owner I really do not have the time to figure this out. Its a shame > GnuCash is a really nice program. I like using it, but printing is hell. Indeed. Part of the problem may be GnuCash, but I think other parts of the problem are GtkHTML and GnomePrint, the libraries that GnuCash uses for reporting and printing. > Is there anyone how knows exactly how this printing works? > Please programmers!

I suspect the answer to your first question is "yes", but more precisely I doubt that any of those people are still reading this mailing list. I do understand your pain. Honestly, what I do when I need to print something from gnucash is export to HTML and then load it into firefox and print from there. > I know that my tone of voice probably will not invite you to answer. > Sorry for that, I need to get my frustration out.
