Thanks. It is not impossible, but unlikely given that it has occured so frequently over the last period and the pc gets rebooted each morning. I mean, I don't assume updates that require restarting occur so frequently, do they? Then again, the pc is used by somebody who might be missing such things. Although this is not the right thread, I'm looking at alternatives in case I can't get it resolved. The most straightforward way seems to be to print directly using a win32ui.CreateDC() object. There is only one problem left with that approach, namely dc.TextOut(0, 0, "Text") works perfect to place plain text on the page, but I'd also need to print a limited number of non-ASCII characters (accents in names, eurosign) and feeding the above method a unicode-string seems to throw an error. Is it possible to get non-ASCII characters printed this way?
