What kind of documents do you want to print? just plain text, postscript, or something else? If you want to print postscript, do you use "magicfilter"? It's strange that something prints "from xterm" (I take it you mean that you manually issued the "lpr file" command), and don't print from an application, as the application usually also just executes "lpr file". Only, mostly the application tries to print postscript files, and maybe some script tries to convert that to LJ-IIP language. (using magicfilter, gs, whatever). That could go wrong. Also, what's "mis-aligned"? do you mean that the text looks like this (the well known staircase effect)? -- joost witteveen, [EMAIL PROTECTED] My spamfilter is so good, it correctly catches 90% of incoming spam, *including* all email from my PhD supervisor. -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
