So, were you trying to use the Postscript output and put it into GNOME-Print? I thought that the printing stuff was sufficiently abstracted into Inkscape::Extension::Print? Is that getting passed Postscript data?
No, there's a PS module for Extension::Print, and a gnome-print module for Extension::Print. But there are things the PS module does to produce correct output that can't be done with the existing gnome-print functions.
(So, yeah, I was trying to short-circuit it by calling the PS function and handing it to gnome-print, but that only let me _print_ with the gnome-print UI. the PDF and preview stuff didn't work since PDF, PS, and preview are all separate "renderings" of it's internal stroke system.
Hmmm, printing may be in a worse situation than I thought :(
It's very tied to PS.
