I want to set at my pleasure the page margins when printing a document edited

The "pr" command may be of help to you.



Thanks for your suggestion.

Well, it's strange: if I do:

 $ pr filename

, the chinese characters included in the document are wonderfully shown on the
terminal; but if I do:

 $ pr filename | lp

, they are not printed.

Any idea of how to work the problem out?  I have Debian Etch.

Thanks indeed
Rodolfo



Evidently your printer doesn't have Chinese glyphs built-in :-)

Use Abiword instead of pr and gedit. Abiword will create a nice Postscript file that will contain rendered versions of the Chinese characters. The printer will be able to handle that.
