[python-win32] Printing PDFs without external tools

[mc@mclaveau]

Hi!

PDF files are text files.
If you use the "print" command, you will print the source of PDF.
If you want another aspect, you need a render (Adobe-reader, 
Sumatra-PDF, etc.)
I suggest Sumatra-PDF :

for "*-print-to-default*" and next)

@-salutations & *sorry for my bad english*
