I have a "QFile myhtmlFile", is there a way to print that easy with
Qt4? I know there is QPrinter but I couldn't find where to set the
file I want to print, anyone?
thanx in advance

Use QPrinter.

QPrinter is a paint device. You need to layout that html file using Qt richtext capabilities (QDocumentLayout probably) and paint that layout "on" the printer (like you were using a QPainter).

To print a content of a HTML file, you would need to use a QTextDocument. I would use something like the following to do it:
HTH :)
void print()
{
QFile file("myHTML.html");
if (!file.open(QIODevice::ReadOnly | QIODevice::Text))
return;
QString htmlContent;
QTextStream in(&file);
in >> htmlContent;
QTextDocument *document = new QTextDocument();
document->setHtml(htmlContent);
QPrinter printer;
QPrintDialog *dialog = new QPrintDialog(&printer, this);
if (dialog->exec() != QDialog::Accepted)
return;
document->print(&printer);
delete document;
}

You have to have an application that understands these types of files.
