+<title>Printing with Evolution</title>
+<para>
+ Like most GNOME applications, <application>Evolution</application> uses
+ the gnome-print system, so if you've used any other GNOME
+ application to print, you should be able to print from
+ <application>Evolution</application> immediately.
+</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 postscript file. You can also use the
+ preview feature to see how your printed output will look.

+ <title>Print Preview</title>
+ <para>
+ <guibutton>Print Preview</guibutton> 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 <guibutton>Fit</guibutton> button)
+ or match the width of the page and the window (the
+ <guibutton>Fit Width</guibutton> 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 things
+ look, click <guibutton>Print</guibutton> 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 the Mail, Calendar, or Contact Manager.

+ <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
+ <guilabel>lpr</guilabel>) 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.

+ 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

+ whether to print only the selected cards, or all of them.
