I am not sure what the problem is precisely - I think it is some problem with font management.
I have some files that only look good in xpdf and look completely ugly in gv; on the other side, I've got documents that only are viewable in gv and don't show any font/letter in xpdf. I guess that's some form of 'freedom of choice' :) for printing in xpdf: there's a 'printer' button at the bottom; it will print to a .ps file (which, btw, always looks great in gv). this can be printed with lpr, as usual. bye Philipp Kaeser
