Should we then have a 'print' entry in the File-menu?
I wonder about that myself. I never use it (I always print from a
viewer), although that's partly because I don't have a PS-aware printer.
Beyond that, it's not entirely obvious (at least to a newbie) just what
File->Print is going to print, since DVI, PS and PDF outputs of the same
doc tend to differ a bit.
Does it seem strange to have a "document processor" that cannot print?
I'd be ok with using the viewer, but it's confusing with a File->Print
that doesn't work.
