[texworks] Not able to print pdf-documents

[Charles Nix]

As a fellow user, that "error" has existed for many years now.  As I 
understand it, the internal pdf viewer portion has not yet had code 
added to allow printing directly from the window.  So, it is not really 
an error, but rather a feature that is not implemented in the code yet.

When you are ready to print, just open the pdf file in your favorite pdf 
viewer, such as acrobat reader, and print from there.  It adds a few 
seconds, at most.

The development versions (0.7.x) have a hook added that opens the system 
default pdf viewer, but still no  internal printing capability.

Does that help?
