The Print dialog can be used to make a hard copy of your widget hierarchy.
At the top of the dialog are a Filter field, a Directories list and a Files list. These behave in identical fashion to the File Open dialog and provide the means of browsing the file system to select an output file.
You can use the option menus provided to specify the paper size and orientation. There is a Scale option menu which gives you some degree of control over the magnification of the printed widget objects.
X-Designer currently supports printing the Active dialog (Current Page) or all dialogs in your design (All Pages). A toggle button is provided to control this.
The Selection field below the Directories and Files lists is dual-purpose; it can contain the name of your output file, or the name of a command.
There is a radio box of toggles at the bottom of the dialog for specifying whether output is to command or file. The title of the selection field changes to reflect your choice of command or file.
If you enter a command name (for instance, "lpr"), the print output is piped into the command; otherwise, the output is to the file you have selected.
NOTES
The print output is in PostScript format, so a PostScript printer or previewer is needed to output the design to paper.
