Joe,What printer are you using? I'll see if I can reproduce the effect you are talking about.
Thanks! Aaron J. Kanowitz wrote:
In using the HPLIP package distributed by Ubuntu for 6.06 "Dapper" (0.9.7-4ubuntu1), printing documents using Arial 12pt from OpenOffice.org produces output 'jaggier' and with visible differences in line thickness compared to Wordperfect 9 on Windows. The result, while best studied with a magnifying glass, looks a bit like TrueType rendering in general did on *NIX before font hinting became fully supported. I know this is a rather old version of HPLIP by now, and comparing OO.o to WP9 is a bit apples-to-grapefruit, but does anyone know the exact cause or mechanisms for improvement? I haven't looked at the PostScript OO.o is spitting out, so I'm not sure if the blame rests there or further down the driver stack. Note that certain branches of certain US state governments require the use of Arial (or Univers, in my case) as a matter of law. :P -Thanks, -Joe "Floid" Kanowitz ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
