I fear so, sadly :P. I personally preference/ideal  as much shared code/
behavior as possible.. If a PDF is generated under Linux and send to cups,
maybe similar approach could be used under Windows (except the cups part of
course).

@Offtopic
There are currently to many discrepancy with different back-ends
(Skia/GDI/QT/GTK3), printing (in this case) or epub (slow under windows, not
Linux). Now Linux/Mac users are complaining about image perf issues (previously
a Windows issue), now gone under Windows (thanks to Skia). But reshuffling bugs
not really helpful.  And with some bad luck the fix for solving the perf issue
under Linux/Mac will bring back issues for Windows/Skia (Raster and/or Vulkan)
