No option to print line numbers in gedit

I want to print line numbers from gedit, I know how to view them, of course. A previous answer to a question some years ago claimed that the option existed. But on my machine that option seems to have vanished: there is no top bar, no file tab etc. And why is it called 'text editor' rather than 'gedit'? I'm using 20.04.

If there were options then presumably I could also get it to show syntax colouring? There appears to be no proper option to set the language, though I did once find something, but can't find it again.

It is a really simple editor, which is what I want, but these are really simple requirements, and I am stumped.

To summarise: how do I show an option to print line numbers?

Solution 1:

The option to print line numbers continues to be there where one would expect it, i.e., in the Print dialog. The option is on the Text Editor tab.
