reading my attempts explained further down, it seems so. But the 
windowcontroller returns as a view the special view sublass I use. the 
View is connected in the nib to the view inside the scrollview, thus 
indeed what I intend to print: the complete image. So for sure I am 
doing something wrong since it fails on mac and gnustep, but I am 
still overseeing somehthing!

I fixed this, it was indeed a bug, but fixing it didn't change the 
behaviour, on mac at least.

Just as a test I tried that and the result didn't change,
