The GnuCash report print bug is listed at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=350408 After looking further into the problem, it appears that GnomePrint doesn't have a setable default font. And because the pango attrs don't set a font face or size if the required font is the default, the result is the items are printed in GnomePrint default of "Serf Regular 12". My patch changes this to explicitly set the pango attrs resulting with the items printed in that font. As for the character placement problem, it appears to be a problem only with the [Dejavu] Sans and [Dejavu] Serf fonts at point sizes 9 and 10 when printing. This maybe a Ubuntu 6.06 problem. Looking at gtkhtml-3.14.0/src/htmlprinter.c from the most recent source, it appears that the new gtk_print allows the setting of a default font. Please make this user accessable even if its in a gconf file. HTMLPainter * html_printer_new (GtkWidget *widget, GtkPrintContext *context) { const PangoFontDescription *desc; HTMLPrinter *printer; HTMLPainter *painter; printer = g_object_new (HTML_TYPE_PRINTER, NULL); printer->context = g_object_ref (context); painter = HTML_PAINTER (printer); html_painter_set_widget (painter, widget); desc = pango_font_description_from_string ("sans 8");/* FIXME font hardcoded*/ painter->pango_context = gtk_print_context_create_pango_context (context); pango_context_set_font_description (painter->pango_context, desc); return painter; } My web page on this problem with fixes is at http://members.iinet.com.au/~paulone/gnucash/ Thanks, Paul -- _______________________________________________ Evolution-hackers mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-hackers
