J2PrinterWorks
J2PrinterWorks is a JavaTM 2 framework for printing Swing component-based documents.
For example, to print a fully-paginated JTextPane the following code is all that is required:
import com.wildcrest.j2printerworks.*;
J2Printer printer = new J2Printer();
J2TextPrinter textPrinter = new J2TextPrinter(yourJTextPane);
printer.print(textPrinter);
