I am futilely attempting to create white text in Canvas 2.0.

I draw a rectangle, and fill it with black. I write text inside
it, and set the foreground color of the text to white. It looks
great on screen. But when I print it it comes out as one solid, black
rectangle. With black text inside it. Not good.

I *hate* programs that produce different results on screen and on
the printer. Could somebody give me tips/workarounds/comforting words?

In advance thanks,
