          printing, but those that do will return
          <literal>gtk.PRINT_OPERATION_RESULT_IN_PROGRESS</literal> as the
          status, and emit the done signal when the operation is actually
          done.  This property is available in GTK+ 2.10 and above.</entry>

          the user will be able to select to print only the current page.
          Note that this only makes sense for pre-paginated documents.  This

          Note that this property may be ignored on some platforms.  If this

          <entry>The <link

          <entry>Read-Write</entry>
          <entry>The name of a file file to generate instead of showing the
          print dialog. Currently, PDF is the only supported format.  The
          intended use of this property is for implementing "Export to PDF"
          actions.  "Print to PDF" support is independent of this and is
          done by letting the user pick the "Print to PDF" item from the
          list of printers in the print dialog.  This property is available

          <entry>Read-Write</entry>
          <entry>A string used to identify the job (e.g. in monitoring
          applications like eggcups).  If you don't set a job name, GTK+
          picks a default one by numbering successive print jobs.  This

          rendering starts. It may be set in a "begin-print" signal hander.
          Note that the page numbers passed to the "request-page-setup" and
          "draw-page" signals are 0-based, i.e. if the user chooses to print
          all pages, the last "draw-page" signal will be for page

          <entry>Read</entry>
          <entry>The number of pages that will be printed.
          Note that this value is set during print preparation phase
          (<literal>gtk.PRINT_STATUS_PREPARING</literal>), so this value
          should never be get before the data generation phase
          (<literal>gtk.PRINT_STATUS_GENERATING_DATA</literal>).
          You can connect to the "status-changed" signal and call
          gtk_print_operation_get_n_pages_to_print() when print status is
          <literal>gtk.PRINT_STATUS_GENERATING_DATA</literal>. This is
          typically used to track the progress of print operation.

    <title>Description</title>

    <para><link
    linkend="class-gtkprintoperation"><classname>gtk.PrintOperation</classname></link>
    is the high-level, portable printing API. It looks a bit different than
    other GTK+ dialogs such as the <link
    linkend="class-gtkfilechooser"><classname>gtk.FileChooser</classname></link>,
    since some platforms don't expose enough infrastructure to implement a
    good print dialog. On such platforms, <link
    linkend="class-gtkprintoperation"><classname>gtk.PrintOperation</classname></link>
    uses the native print dialog. On platforms which do not provide a native
    print dialog, GTK+ uses its own, see <link
    linkend="class-gtkprintunixdialog"><classname>gtkunixprint.PrintUnixDialog</classname></link>.</para>

    <para>The typical way to use the high-level printing API is to create a
    <link
    linkend="class-gtkprintoperation"><classname>gtk.PrintOperation</classname></link>
    object with the <link
    linkend="constructor-gtkprintoperation"><methodname>gtk.PrintOperation</methodname></link>
    constructor when the user selects to print. Then you set some properties
    on it, e.g. the page size, any <link
    linkend="class-gtkprintsettings"><classname>gtk.PrintSettings</classname></link>
    from previous print operations, the number of pages, the current page,
    etc.</para>

    <para>Then you start the print operation by calling the <link
    linkend="method-gtkprintoperation--run"><methodname>gtk.PrintOperation.run()</methodname></link>
    method.  It will then show a dialog, let the user select a printer and
    options.  When the user finished the dialog various signals will be
    emitted on the <link
    linkend="class-gtkprintoperation"><classname>gtk.PrintOperation</classname></link>,
    the main one being "draw-page", which you are supposed to catch and
    render the page on the provided <link
    linkend="class-gtkprintcontext"><classname>gtk.PrintContext</classname></link>
    using Cairo.</para>

<example>
<title>The high-level printing API</title>
<programlisting>
settings = None

def do_print():
  print_op = gtk.PrintOperation()

  if settings != None: 
    print_op.set_print_settings(settings)

  print_op.connect("begin_print", begin_print)
  print_op.connect("draw_page", draw_page)

  res = print_op.run(gtk.PRINT_OPERATION_ACTION_PRINT_DIALOG, main_window)

  if res == gtk.PRINT_OPERATION_RESULT_APPLY:
      settings = print_op.get_print_settings()
</programlisting>

<para>Printing support was added in GTK+ 2.10.</para>

      <para>The "paginate" signal is emitted after the "begin-print" signal,
      but before the actual rendering starts. It keeps getting emitted until
      it returns <literal>False</literal>.</para>

      <para>This signal is intended to be used for paginating the document
      in small chunks, to avoid blocking the user interface for a long
      time. The signal handler should update the number of pages using the
      <link
      linkend="method-gtkprintoperation--set-n-pages"><methodname>gtk.PrintOperation.set_n_pages</methodname>()</link>
      method, and return <literal>True</literal> if the document has been
      completely paginated.</para>

      <para>If you don't need to do pagination in chunks, you can simply do
      it all in the "begin-print" handler, and set the number of pages from
      there.</para>
