------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED]  2003-09-09 05:44 -------
OpenOffice.org 1.1 mase it into Mandrake 9.2, so the bug is fixed for the major
lines of Office applications:

 - OpenOffice.org
 - KDE/Qt-based applications (KOffice ...)
 - GNOME-based applications (Abiword, Gnumeric, ...)

Laurent, Lenny, Titi, what about Scribus. Note that Scribus DOES NOT use Qt's
PostScript generator, but its own one. Please check.

Giuseppe, what is the state of Xprint regarding this bug?

And what about Mozilla?

Are there any other apps which produce PostScript with fonts?

preface 1:
my knowledge of the applications involved in printing is limited, so I am just
assuming that this error is (only) ghostscript-related ...
                                                                               
                                     
preface 2:
bugzilla shows 7.05-8mdk as the current version, which is strange. The newest
version I get from the mirrors is 7.05-53mdk, so this is maybe a bug in bugzilla
;-))
                                                                               
                                     
certain ttf-fonts installed via drakfont and/or spadmin just can't get printed.
The errors I get in /var/log/cups/error_log always look like this:

I traced the problem down and found the reason in the generated (temporary)
postscript file:
                                                                               
                                     
In the postscript file the ttf-font named "Stylus" is mapped as:
                                                                               
                                     
---------CUT-----------
%%Title: Stylus Regular
---------CUT-----------
... which is WRONG.
                                                                               
                                     
CORRECT is:
---------CUT-----------
%%Title: Stylus-Regular
---------CUT-----------

If all occurances of the wrong "Stylus Regular" have been replaced, printing is
successful.
                                                                               
                                     
As I said, I have no idea if ghostscript is the real bad boy here ...
                                                                               
                                     
This happens for many ttf-fonts, so at least for me this is a major problem. The
reason are always the missing dashes in the font-names.
                                                                               
                                     
Upon request I can also post Stylus.ttf as an attachment.
