I guess it calls my code, but the docs for “NSDocument.pdfPrintOperation” say I should use a separate print-information objects for PDF mode. Does the default code take care of that already? Or do I have to figure out somehow if I’m in print-to-PDF mode or regular print mode and change the initialization of “info” above to be “self.pdfPrintOperation” as needed?

And this is why you shouldn't post half-tired. It's "pdfPrintOperation," not "pdfPrintInfo," so my override wouldn't be called by definition. I guess I would override "pdfPrintOperation" to attach a custom print-info, but what should be in it? Is there some Apple sample code on this property? I didn't find it at all on GitHub.


> 2. The RTF files I saved with the conversion operation have wrapping when viewed through QuickLook. But the print-outs don’t do that; they do wrap, but the limit is past the page margins so I lose part of the text. How can I set the wrapping-mode/margins correctly.

I forgot to mention that another symptom was a second page appearing if the document only used one. I guess it was trying to represent the cut-off text on the right side. But it doesn't show up if more than one page is used.
