That's the objection: "using Adobe Acrobat." Users can't be expected to
dump to PDF, open the dump in Acrobat, and then print when any other
app allows them just to choose Print from the File menu. Yes, we can
probably automate that, but it will look pretty cheesey. And I doubt
that Chandler would be able to include Acrobat in its distribution, so
now we're requiring users to install both Acrobat and Chandler if they
want to print.
My Mom isn't going to do that.
