I've just tried your patch and I like it. The new dialog is much nicer
than the original one. I have a couple of feature requests though:

Could you add a setting to the print dialog that would allow you to
scale all the font sizes in the postscript output? If you print large
schematics on a small paper the default size gets too small to be
readable. This is a matter of adjusting one line in the postscript file.
I currently do it by hand and I was thinking of making a patch myself,
but since you are just redesigning the print dialog...

I believe a better place for the "print" button would be to the right of
the "command" text box (like the "Save as" button is placed). This would
be a bit less confusing (should I press the "Save as" button or "Print"
when saving to a file?).

And one last thing: on my system (using GTK 2.8.18), when I click the
"Save as" button, the stock GTK "Save as" dialog pops up, offering
another chance to choose where to save the postscript file. I think this
is unnecessary, since I already chose where I wish to save the
postscript in the main dialog.
