Hi all, Here's a print preview of the problem:
http://www.consulting.net.nz/print_preview.png This is Debian unstable on x86 running GNOME. Evolution, gedit, etc. are all printing rectanges. My searching doesn't turn up a solution. At this stage I'm printing text using StarOffice 5.2 since at least that works. I can also print postscript fine from the command line. It seems to be a GNOME print problem. I've tried selecting different fonts under HTML Viewer in Control Panel. I remember having the problem ages ago and it went away. Since I went back to an older revision of my OS and again upgraded to the latest packages its back again. Maybe I'm missing a necessary package.
