just want to share this with you:

if you own a copy of dark ink and a copy of Microsoft one note.

- set your default printer to one note printer (which is a virtual printer).
- design your print out using dark ink.
- compile your program and run.
- one note program will open to show you the print you designed.
- save your print as PDF.

anyone has a better idea

I haven't used it in dbpro yet, but I have with other languages and I like CutePDF. It is free and also a virtual printer that will print directly into a pdf format. All you have to do is point the printer selection to CutePDF and it does the work.

I've been using CutePDF for many years. It's great even for large PDF's such as A0 architectural drawings. I used it on AutoCad before they added the PDF export option.

@baxslash: if you used it for autocad, I presume it create high quality PDF.
because I lose some sharpness using one note.
