Product: ghostscript
Component: ghostscript
Summary: Japanese text cannot be printed
Version: 7.05-42mdk
Platform: PC
OS/Version: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P2
AssignedTo: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
ReportedBy: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I did a fresh install of cooker last night with Japanese as a second language.
Among other packages, I have
fonts-ttf-japanese-0.20020727-2mdk
OpenOffice.org-l10n-ja-1.0.2-2mdk
kde-i18n-ja-3.1-1mdk
locales-ja-2.3.1.4-3mdk
ghostscript-7.05-42mdk
ghostscript-fonts-6.0-1mdk
ghostscript-module-X-7.05-42mdk
installed.
No matter what fonts I choose in mozilla or konqueror, I cannot print a simple
page in Japanese successfully on my HP Deskjet 832C.
I have been able to print to a postscript file and view that in gv without any
problems, but when I send it to the printer, it comes out garbled.
I.e I get one of the following:
- Squares instead of Japanese letters
- Blanks instead of Japanese letters
- Symbols instead of Japanese letters, such as $*$$o$K
Almost all postscript files looked correct when viewed in gv.
The one case where I could not view correctly the postscript file in gv was when
I used the default fonts in konqueror!!!
For this test, I created a new user, logged into kde as that user, ran
/usr/sbin/localedrake, logged out and in again. This is as clean of a setup as
possible.
