[Sugar-devel] Print Support (journal vs activity)

[Walter Bender]

It seems we can attack this in simple steps (sorry for the rehash of
what has already be said):
(1) a mechanism for printing Journal objects (anything of mime-type
.pdf, txt, jpg, png, etc.)
(2) an example of optional mechanisms for activities to drop
additional printable objects into the Journal
(3) exploration of printing directly from Sugar.
