NEWBIE:Printer subsystem in Windows

I would like to create a piece of software/script that when you press print in any application it brings up a dialogue box that gives you the option to email the contents of the printed material or send it to a webserver as well as print to the users desktop printer...

It would be preferable to have the data sent as plain text but i suppose i can have the server convert back whether it is RAW, RIP etc... The data being printed that i want captured and sent will always be text...

Anybody that could help with any pointers in the right direction would be greatly appreciated...

Thanks, J

Each of the standard windows dialog boxs (open, save/save as, print) all belong in a standard, common DLL, the name of which escapes me atm, but google will tell you no doubt. I would think that simply changing that DLL and packaging it up would be all that's required. Of course, you would have to know how to write what you detailed... may I suggest you learn C++.
