Proportional fonts not printed with xprt-xprintorg with Mozilla
Dear Folks,
I run Debian woody on a PC with (unstable distribution) Mozilla Debian
Package 1.3-3 and xprt-common 0.0.8.cvs20030 and xprt-xprintorg
0.0.8.cvs20030. I can print proportional and fixed width fonts via xprt
with Mozilla on my office PC, but NOT on my home PC, which has a similar
installation. I have the standard xfonts and TrueType fonts, including
the msttcorefonts, on both machines. I also run xfs-xtt on both.
The home installation, which does not print proportional fonts, has the
following settings:
echo $XPSERVERLIST
:64
(DISPLAY=:64 xset q | awk "/Font Path:/ { i=1 ; next } i==1 { print \$0
; i=0 }" | tr "," "[\n]")
PRINTER:/usr/share/Xprint/xserver/C/print/
/models/PSspooldir/
/fonts/[PRINTER:/usr/share/Xprint/xserver/C/print//models/PSdefault/
/fonts/[/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1[/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType
[/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/larabie-deco
[/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/larabie-straight
[/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType/larabie-uncommon
[/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/100dpi[/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/75dpi
[/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/misc
The Mozilla print preview with xprt-xprintorg shows the proportional
sans serif fonts on web pages, but the hardcopy output from the printer
only shows fixed width fonts. Even when I save to a .ps file and view
it with gv, I only see courier fonts, unlike the print preview which
shows the proportional fonts.
Can you tell me what to do to print proportional fonts, please?
Thank you.
