[Qt-interest] New Printing Features in Qt5?

[Jason H]

I haven't printed anything sine 4.4, but when I did, it was rough around the 
edges, literally. Some character combinations were kerned wrong or 
inconsistently. I was just trying to print a QTextDocument the easiest way 
possible. This was on WindowsXP, Lexmark laser printer. Only Qt prints outs were 
bad.

These would be much appreciated! Other ideas I would appreciate would be 
booklet printing, and printing 2/4/8 pages per printed page...

Thanks!
