Image Viewer Printing continued

[eculbert]

I usually just change the format before I save it. Not
a ubuntu user, but Mine (ksnapshot) has the ability to
choose the format and I usually choose .jpg so I can
print it w/o problems.

There is bunches of .xyz formats and I guess the linux
print driver makers just do a few such as .gif and jpg
etc. The 'common' ones it seems. I know, I cannot
pring .png's either.

PITA?, yes, care, no.
