Hi,

I am a Lisp enthusiast who's new to Racket. I need to build a program for 
my mom that's basically a medical report database where generating PDFs and 
printing (to paper) plays a central part in the business. The report format 
doesn't need to be PDF, but it needs to be printable through Racket (or an 
external program that I can easily integrate). Basically, I need the 
ability to print each report that exists in the database with a variety of 
different layouts.

I see Racket already has "racket/gui", which is exactly what I need to 
build the UI and allow the users to create the reports. And it also has 
"scribble", which seems to be a good fit for generating PDFs. So my 
questions are:

- Would scribble work for my purpose?
- How would I integrate "racket/gui" with the system's printer dialog and 
send my PDFs to the printer?
- If the above is not possible, would there be an external program you 
could recommend?
- Would my app work on both Windows and macOS?

Racket seems an awesome fit because I'd have the possibility to build a web 
UI in the future.

Thank you, I'd appreciate any recommendations :)
