  * Interface describing print lifecycle to support AWT printing

+ * {@link #setupPrint(Graphics2D, double, double) setupPrint(..)} and {@link #releasePrint()}
+ * on all {@link AWTPrintLifecycle} elements in the {@link Container}.<br>
+ * To minimize this burden, a user can use {@link Context#setupPrint(Container, Graphics2D, double, double) Context.setupPrint(..)}:
+ * <pre>
+ *  Graphics2D g2d;
+ *  Frame frame;
+ *  double scaleGLMatXY = 72.0/glDPI;
+ *  ...
