I've just tried the same PDF in "preview" on a Mac running MacOS and I
can't read anything bar the "search" button which actually looks really
good!


** Description changed:

  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

- 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

printing hardy home page from firefox to pdf or hpijs looks awful, scrunched 
fonts
