printing problem

GNUCash team - I am also experiencing this problem, as probably are most
windows users.  If I could assist technically, I would.  I suggest that this
is likely to be a significant impediment to windows users.  I have certainly
not seen any other windows programs exhibit a similar problem in many years
of windows use.  I accept that it may not be a GNUCash source code problem -
but nevertheless, it impacts the GNUCash experience for windows user, and
therefore affects the uptake and acceptance of this fantastic piece of
software.

I am aware of the HTML work around - but surely this printing issue is worth
a bit of investigation by one of the GNUCash guru's out there.  A strong
windows base for this software, ensures its availability for all of us for
many years to come.

I am going to have a shot at bug fixing going forward - rather than just
being a user.

This is not a rant, but just a plea for a major windows issue to get a bit
of priority with the development team.
