yes, and -- as far i can tell -- it will happen! we had a longer discussion about it yesterday evening / afternoon on IRC and it looks very promising. for the "no image at all" i'm not sure whether it is a good idea to give such an option at output time... i see an interest for it but i would implement it in a image by image way (in the proprieties of a picture you could set that a single picture won't be printed in the preview mode; just like you can already set the the preview details on monitor) i guess it's time for a formal feature request :-) ciao a.l.e
