This same bug was reported 2 weeks earlier as bug # 474962. There they reported it as printing 6 CPI (47/80=.875). This report is much more thorough. It still does not get at the fundamental problem which is why is a rasterizer being called at all for printers such as my Lexmark or the Brother above, which are both capapble of printing text using PCL without any rasterization. I tried to access the cups links above that are supposed to explain the proper use of filtering, but I keep getting blank pages in my browser (firefox 3.5.7). Going directly to cups.org server and drilling down keeps leading me to .php pages that are invisible in the browser and in the page source view from the browser as well.
I have posted on the other bug report pointing people to this one since the discussion here is more complete. For the time being I guess I will just rename texttopdf.convs to texttopdf.convs-fubar. I still think it would be better to short- circuit the process before it gets there. -- lpr prints text too large, can only fit 47 characters per line https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/485665 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
