Great.
I can see the use of a glossary but it is much less important than 
coming up with a general print strategy that will make it worthwhile to 
use more of the features of ArguUML.
At the moment, I do not use a lot of functions since entering the data 
is pointless if it can not be extracted for presentation to users.

I hope that the developers are looking a tools like FOP and BIRT or 
other technologies that will make it easy add new reports or to 
customize the reports.
