The lines were missing, they disappeared during trials. But following 
your comment I went to MinGW\lib and there was no gdi32 nor ole32, but 
"libgdi32.a" and "libole32.a"
So I changed TeXworks.pro lines to
    LIBS += -libgdi32   and
    LIBS += -libole32
The compilation gave the following error:
g++ -enable-stdcall-fixup -Wl,-enable-auto-import 
-Wl,-enable-runtime-pseudo-rel
oc -Wl,-s -mthreads -Wl -Wl,-subsystem,windows -o release/TeXworks.exe 
object_sc
ript.TeXworks.Release  -L'c:/Programmes/KDE-mingw/bin/../lib' -lmingw32 
-lqtmain
 -LC:/texworks-mingw/hunspell-1.2.8/src/hunspell/.libs -lpoppler-qt4 
-lhunspell-
1.2 -libgdi32 -libole32 -lQtXml4 -lQtGui4 -lQtCore4

mingw32-make[1]: *** [release/TeXworks.exe] Error 1
mingw32-make[1]: Leaving directory `C:/texworks-mingw/texworks'
mingw32-make: *** [release] Error 2

or with:
    LIBS += -llibgdi32   and
    LIBS += -llibole32
g++ -enable-stdcall-fixup -Wl,-enable-auto-import 
-Wl,-enable-runtime-pseudo-rel

So I deleted the 2 lines and commented the #if ... #endif (in 
PDFDocument.cpp) and it compiled and it works for printing the source 
(keeping the highlighting colors) and creating the image for the PDF 
(printing to pdfcreator also works -- to print only one page you have to 
enter 2-2 not only 2).

There were some warnings about unused variables and about something with 
Javascript???

I'll put it on my site for testing by others (tomorrow).

Good night and thanks,

Alain
