This is in reference to Byron Han's reply to Scoop's query about
storing the print record in the application's resource fork.

It seems to me that another way to handle this might be to store the
appropriate print record in the resource fork of the documents being
formatted, rather than in the resource fork of the application.  This
might be safer (the application wouldn't need to be self-modifying).
This trick could be combined with the "style sheet" concept that I
seem to recall floating by in a technote a couple of months ago.
Different style-sheet documents could be created; each one would have
an empty data fork and a single "XXXX" (or whatever) resource in the
resource fork, containing the appropriate print record.  The "New..."
dialog would probably want to pop up an SFGetFile to select the
appropriate style sheet.

Does this make any sense at all in your situation, Scoop?
