Re: PATCH(WIP): Printing Support And Save GQB/Explain as an image

Hi Dave,

As discussed, I am not confident about the Printing support on Mac OSX.
It is working well on other platforms. In fact, Print Preview is also
working good on OSX. But, It gives arbitrary results for the printing.. (The
main feature of this patch.) :-(

I will need some more time investigating the exact issue.

As discussed, I m taking of the save as an image functionality from the
patch and sending you the patch for the same with this.

I am feeling very disappointed, but I do not want to rush into the things
and do not want to do things in hurry.
