Printing Text & Graphics
| sheppie68 (1) | |||
| Hello, I am writing an application for Linux and need to generate a daily report. Currently I put all of the information into a text file and then send it to CUPS to print. I'd really like to include a JPG graphic on the report, but don't know how to do this. If anyone can help out or has an example I'd really appreciate it. Thanks! Ian | |||

| You could get familiar with the OpenOffice file format. It's just a Jar file with XML template objects etc. You can build your own templates and then build the file and send this off for printing. I have used this previously as a way to generate invoices and work-logs. If you got really familiar with it, then you could write your own ODF files :) Another object is to create PDF documents by using a PDF library or something similar to this. Edit: You could prob even just create an HTML document and print this :) | |||
