Description Joe Pantella CLA 2003-05-08 07:47:34 EDT
If you modify the Java Editor preferences to different background and text 
colors, e.g. a black background with yellow text, when you try to print the 
code it prints the light text on the dark background.  That is, it tries to 
honor the color encoding when printing, when it should simply print the code as 
black text as would be normal for printing.  It is unreasonable to have to 
reset the Editor Preferences to black text on a white background every time you 
want to print some code.  I hope this gets addressed in a future version 
because although it may sound trivial, it is a serious consideration for me 
when I choose an IDE.  Thanks.

Not sure if this is EditorMgmt or Preferences.  Will watch to see where it 
lands.
