Seeing as I am a win32 developer - albeit with not much time, I just hooked up my old printer to investigate the notorious win32 printing bug. I see the problem - wierd blackness in both bitmap and vector mode, and messed up polygons in vector mode.
I guess I'm stating the obvious here.
I'm not sure what to suggest - this seems like a renderer (cairo?) problem to me. If cairo is broken, then we must either push through fixes to cairo, or revert back to the old system. I imagine cairo fixes will be too slow, so I suggest we revert printing to the pre-November version for win32 only, until we can get a proper fix in time for 0.46.1. What do people think?
+1 for releasing all platforms at the same time - we need to make as a big a media rumble as we can.
