Arvosteltu: 4/5 tähteä

I tried FG Printers 0.1.0 with Sunbird 0.5 on Windows XP (both in Italian language).

This extension allows to customize the printing options for Weekly Planner and Monthly Grid layouts, adding the following options:
- use Arial font instead of the default font (Times New Roman ?) used by Sunbird. Arial font looks better for many people, including me
- use a background color for non working days and for day headers
- choose the font size for the various calendar elements
Besides this, category colors are actually printed.

The extension provides support to language localization.

I found only two issues:
- background colors are visible in the print preview, but I didn't see them in a PDF printing (I didn't try a real print)
- the current version 0.1.0 does not support Sunbird 0.7; I hope that support for 0.7 version will come soon.

This extension is a basis for providing more options to print functionality of Sunbird and Lightning, which is quite limited.
I hope that the author will extend it in the future.

This review is for a previous version of the add-on (0.1.0).

The missing background printing is not really an issue of that extension, but has to do with the printing setup of Sunbird. In order to get the background colours printed, you have to enable "background printing" in the Page Setup dialog box found in the File menu of Sunbird.

The recent version of the Extension also supports Sunbird 0.7.
