Re: Printing

Hi Carla,
You may alloc and instantiate a NSTextView in code. I does not need
to be instantiated in Interface Builder.

NSTextView *printView = [[NSTextView alloc]initWithFrame:
NSMakeRect(0.0,0.0 ,8.5 * 72 ,11.0 * 72)];
NSPrintOperation *op;

printView you add what you want with replaceCharactersInRange: withRTFD:

Then you may send it to the printer

op = [NSPrintOperation printOperationWithView: printView printInfo:
[self printInfo]];
[op setShowPanels: showPanels];
[self runModalPrintOperation: op delegate: nil didRunSelector: NULL
contextInfo: NULL];
[printView release];
