Hi,

I have been looking for some time on how to achieve a simple report.
At this moment I don't care about headers, footers, different fonts etc.

I use jDataStore and would just select the data that I need and print...

I was hoping that creating a jTextArea, using moonscape font, and (kind 
of the old days) just print text - line by line, and the just send this 
to the printer.

Anyone seen or know how to achieve this with minimal code. Is there any 
books that address this? I have three books and only one even talk about 
it but the example to print text is from 97 for 1.1.

The only thing I have found is how print nice pictures on one page and a 
PrintFramework (JavaWorld - 2001). This is a great start if I need a 
"complete" print system but a bit complicated for my needs now.

Magnus
