Any KDE application can use the printing system available in kdelibs, even =
a=20
commandline application,

Based on the general use case, I think it might best be done through a spec=
ial=20
mode for Okular.
It can read/import loads of formats and it will support printing anyway.=20
Probably mostly a question of adding reading from stdin and going right int=
o=20
print mode.

Cheers,
Kevin
