Jan,

Sounds very cool! Thanks for all of the hard work. I will really try to take
time this week to test-drive your plug-in (and Geoff's) so that I can give
some useful feedback.

Support for printing is something that OpenJUMP really needs. I appreciate
your effort in this area, and I'm sure the other developers do as well.

Hello OpenJUMP developers,

I just uploaded the initial release of the new PrintLayout Plugin as
version
0.8.0 (indicating we think 80% is done of what we planned to do).


http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=118054&package_id=219772

Features:
- adding of maps and rectangles.
- Scaling (cool: scaletext "1:XXXX" changes accordingly :-)
- rotation
- group/ungroup
- Print as PDF, to printer, as SVG
- import any SVG, raster image

Of course it does not offer any feature of a vector drawing tool,
but in fact you can easily import the SVG export file into e.g. InkScape
and polish the page.

I am waiting with an announcement on the users list until some developers
verified that the method to get the Plugin to work (see below) works for
them
as well.
I am especially interested in whether it works not only with OpenJUMP, but
also with PirolJUMP, deeJUMP, etc.

All the best

1. Copy the the printlayout.jar
  into the the lib/ext directory of
  your OpenJump installation.

ATTENTION: The next steps replace existing jar files. Be sure
you don't get into trouble when you loose these files. Backups
or a separate installation of OpenJump could help here.

2. Remove the batik libraries coming with
  OpenJump and replace them:

  rm -rf <where you installed OpenJump>/lib/batik

3. Download these jar files and place them into
  <where you checked out the plugin sources>/lib/
