Selecting "File->Print" brings up a formatting/layout dialogue from
which the "Print..." button brings up a printer-selection dialogue.
The printer-selection dialogue is exactly the same as in 'qcad'.
Printer
Name [Print to file (PDF) v] [Properties]
Location:
Type:
Output file: [<name of output file>.pdf] [...]
[Options >>] [Print ] [Cancel ]
The printer name field is a drop-down selection box. It is pre-filled with
"Print to file (PDF)". It highlights, but no other options are shown.
