- <title>Printing with Evolution</title>
- <para>
- If you've printed from most any other
- Gnome application, you should be able
- to print from Evolution without much
- trouble.
- </para>
- <para>
- Whether you're printing a message, a calendar page, or a selection
- of address cards, you can choose to print directly to a printer,
- or save the print output to a <glossterm
- linkend="postscript">postscript</glossterm> file. You can also
- use the preview feature to see how your printed output will look.

- <title>Print Preview</title>
- <para>
- <guilabel>Print Preview</guilabel> appears both as a button in
- the printing dialog and as an item in the
- <guimenu>File</guimenu> menu. In both places, it does the same
- thing: it opens a new window that shows you what would happen if
- you were to print the current message, calendar, appointment, or
- address card.
- </para>
- <para>
- That window allows you to select which pages you want to see,
- and how close you'd like to look at them. Zoom in or out, fit
- the page to the window (the <guilabel>Fit</guilabel> button)
- or match the width of the page and the window (the
- <guilabel>Fit Width</guilabel> button). None of these buttons
- changes the way the page will be printed, but they do let you
- get a better look. If you're satisfied with the way the your paper
- looks, click <guilabel>Print</guilabel> to send your document
- on its way. If you'd like to change it, just close the
- <guilabel>Print Preview</guilabel> window and make the changes
- you want from your mail, calendar, or address book.

- <title>File or Printer?</title>
- <para>
- The printer selection window, shown in <xref
- linkend="print-dest"/>, lets you choose the format for
- printing&mdash; <guilabel>Generic Postscript</guilabel>,
- whether to write to a PDF file, and whether to print to a file
- or to an actual printer in Generic Postscript. If you choose a
- printer, you'll be asked for the printer command (probably
- <command>lpr</command>) which your system uses. If you
- choose to print to a file, you'll need to decide upon a
- filename. And of course, you'll want to choose a number of
- copies, and whether to collate them.

- <title>Printing to PostScript?</title>
- <para>
- PostScript is the file format used by most laser printers,
- and in UNIX world is the easiest way to print to a file.
- However, most systems running Microsoft Windows can't
- recognize or handle PostScript files. You'll need to print
- to PDF if you want to share your file with Windows users.

- If you're printing a message that's more than one page, you'll
- have the option of choosing which pages to print. If you're
- printing a calendar entry, you can decide what range of dates to
- print. And, if you're printing contact cards, you can decide
- whether to print only the selected cards, or all of them.

- When you're ready, click <guilabel>Print</guilabel> to print,
- <guilabel>Preview</guilabel> to have a look (or another look)
