Public bug reported: Binary package hint: firefox
# lsb_release -rd Description: Ubuntu 8.04 Release: 8.04 # dpkg -l |grep " hp" ii hpijs 2.8.2+2.8.2-0ubuntu8 HP Linux Printing and Imaging - gs IJS drive ii hplip 2.8.2-0ubuntu8 HP Linux Printing and Imaging System (HPLIP) ii hplip-data 2.8.2-0ubuntu8 HP Linux Printing and Imaging - data files I've a fairly new install of hardy, I've installed all recommended patches as of today. I do have a HP printer and I'm using the HPlip printing software quiet sucessfully (was really impressed the network scanner facility work out of the box!) However, I'm having a real hard time printing from firefox. The fonts are on the whole terrible. Scrunched up and overlapping. This happened on the release that shipped with hardy as well as the recent update to ff3-rc2 What's more, if I print to a PDF file, and open using the standard pdf view it still looks awful! I've tried installing the non-free packages too.. msttcorefonts and not much has happened really. The rendering on the screen looks good for the most part, but the printed (or rendered to PDF) version nearly always looks a bit off.. I though the default hardy homepage was a good starting point http://start.ubuntu.com/8.04/ ** Affects: firefox (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- printing hardy home page from firefox to pdf or hpijs looks awful, scrunched fonts https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/238719 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
