You can print the current file using <menu|File|Print|Print all>. By
default, <TeXmacs> assumes that you have a 600dpi printer for a4 paper.
These default settings can be changed in <menu|Edit|Preferences|Printer>.
You can also print to a postscript file using <menu|File|Print|Print all to
file> (in which case the default printer settings are used for creating the
output) or <menu|File|Export|Postscript> (in which case the printer
settings are ignored).
You may export to <acronym|PDF> using <menu|File|Export|Pdf>. Notice that
you should set <menu|Edit|Preferences|Printer|Font type|Type 1> if you want
the produced Postscript or <acronym|PDF> file to use <name|Type 1>
fonts.<index|pdf> However, only the CM fonts admit <name|Type 1> versions.
These CM fonts are of a slightly inferior quality to the EC fonts, mainly
for accented characters. Consequently, you might prefer to use the EC fonts
as long as you do not need a PDF file which looks nice in <name|Acrobat
Reader>.
When adequately configuring <TeXmacs>, the editor is guaranteed to be
<em|wysiwyg>: the result after printing out is exactly what you see on your
screen. In order to obtain full wysiwygness, you should in particular
select <menu|Document|Page|Type|Paper> and <menu|Document|Page|Screen
layout|Margins as on paper>. You should also make sure that the characters
on your screen use the same number of dots per inch as your printer. This
rendering precision of the characters may be changed using
<menu|Document|Font|Dpi>. Currently, minor typesetting changes may occur
when changing the dpi, which may globally affect the document through line
and page breaking. In a future release this drawback should be removed.
