Some of the features of the GIMP print dialog that I miss most are: * Fast preview. You currently need to create a full-blown postscript preview, just to see how the image will fit on the paper. Creating a preview takes several minutes. * Intuitive positioning of the image on the paper * Changing the print size/position directly from the print dialog, with preview Several other KDE applications could use printing features like these, so maybe they could be implemented in KDEPrint? 476157 1 frederic.coiffier 2006-10-11 20:05:18 +0000 Moreover, the gimpprint has a big problem : it adjust the gamma of the picture even if it's not needed (as some printer drivers already adjust it). So, I'm really impatient to see this feature in Krita. 497119 2 stefan.mueller 2006-12-31 11:25:41 +0000 Printing is very basic now. - One should at least specify the picture size on the printed sheet (e.g fit-to-width, 50% of width e.g. or 20 cm width, 200 dpi. with a small preview) - Another feature are contact sheets (like gallery, many small pictures from a folder) - Export-to-pdf, for printing of large-format posters (A0, A1, A2) at a service bureau 657367 3 halla 2008-10-26 19:12:50 +0000 *** Bug 155155 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** 927166 4 halla 2010-03-02 13:49:15 +0000 Krita's vision is defined as "Krita is a KDE program for sketching and painting, offering an end–to–end solution for creating digital painting files from scratch by masters.", and this means that we produce files and leave producing paper output to other applications.
