printing embedded fonts from Linux
this is a little off topic, if I could get pointed to some documetation that would be great. Othewise if you have a solution or some knowledge to pass on I'd appreciate it. We have 800+ neoware boxes that we're sending FOP generated PDF's too. The PDF's display the embedded font (Aachen) correctly. However when we go to print nothing happens. The printer fires up, says flushing buffer then just stops. We can print the same PDF to the printer from NT. The embedded font is a PFM. What do we need to do to get these to print? We've tried selecting the different levels of postscript (thought postscript 1 would do it ) from acrobats print dialog, but no dice. Thanks for any help.

What printing software do you use? Have you looked at CUPS?

RE: printing embedded fonts from Linux
Hey John: Try downloading the font to printer memory directly before sending in the pdfs. Use font downloader (or another similar tool) to get the font directly into printer RAM. The flushing buffer message often refers to printer documents that are either damaged, or exceed printer memory for some reason. Hope that helps. jw -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Thursday, November 15, 2001 10:32 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: printing embedded fonts from Linux this is a little off topic, if I could get pointed to some documetation that would be great.

Re: printing embedded fonts from Linux
We're using the standard lpr/lpd on the neoware boxes. In our testing, lpr/lpd is pointing to a instance of Mocha lpd on an NT box. brainstormAny of our stores that have a PC use Mocha as the print server for the neoware boxes. In which case they could print from the PC, so we're realy only concerned with neoware boxes with direct connections to Lexmark printers./brainstorm We can print pdf's with default fonts. I'm thinking it's a problem with the postscript and Linux not having access to the embedded font.
