[python-win32] Windows printing with the use of DeviceContext

[Todd Fiske]

Hi Antoine,

If you ever do want to use the Windows printing API, there is a
library called MSWinPrint that provides a wrapper that makes it easier
to use and understand.

https://pypi.org/project/MSWinPrint/

But I also agree with the others that the PDF option is more general
and practical. I've used ReportLab for generating PDFs but will give
the PyMuPDF library a try too.
