Subject: Re: [flexcoders] FB2 :: Flex printing

Hi,

Printing in Flash is a little pain and should be revisited by the Flash Player team before others in the Flex team do something else because I my opinion the problem is in the plataform and not in the framework. Is great to have nowadays a framework like flex that saves tons of time but when we reach printing, there's no time calculations and only experience would help you.

I experience a lot of problems sometime ago and I assume that the problem when we try to print vectors and bitmaps borns of the different display engines in Flash Player 8. It seems Flash Player has a engine for vectors and other one for bitmaps so printing is affected of this dual display nature. Hope this issue will enhanced in the future because could be a frustration for people coming to the Flash Platform in the future

Hi

I have used the package you are pointing at. To
reproduce the bug try to print out a page with text
and bitmap image (do not embed image load it
dynamically).

When you use FlexPrintJob package, you'll get bitmap
quality printing which is not good at all for use in
reports.
 
When you use flash.print.PrintJob package you will get
vector printing, but you won't get the image printed.

My question was would there be an option to print
images and text on one page in good vector printing
quality?
Is there a way to set FlexPrintJob to print in vector
format?
