Thank you, Stew, for confirming that the SRU fixes this bug. We will
soon add it to the automatic updates.
Passing text directly to the printer is not a bug but a feature request.
This feature request is not specific to Ubuntu but interesting for users
of all distributions, especially users of dot

I was able to install the above update. The presence of
/etc/apt/preferences with a priority of 400 was, I believe, causing
synaptic to hide it. I may also have been confused about the package
name. I was looking for cups1.4.2-7, but the ubuntu number still starts
out as 1.4.1-5Ubuntu2.2.

Thanks. I have been away from ubuntu for awhile and am rusty, so forgot
to do that. I have now done it, saw that all the repos updated. Saw
the lines:
Hit http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic-proposed/main Packages
Hit http://archive.ubuntu.com karmic-proposed/multiverse Package
I have checked the server and the new CUPS packages are there.
Can you run the command
sudo apt-get update
in a terminal window? Can you download the updated CUPS now?

The font width problem has been reported as bug # 474962 and as bug #

other one focuses on the char width.
It looks like someone has put a duplicate bug notice on 474962, but
there is not yet one up on 485665. I just refreshed

There is apparently a bug in FontForge, by which a few characters were
appended to the TTF and OTF binaries of FreeFont (and other fonts).
This may be partly responsible for the problems you have seen. We are
onto it.

Hi,
I am investigating this, but at this time, it appears at least more
complex than Hin-Tak reported. On systems at my disposal, using the
same tools (ftview) he cites, FreeMono looks great. This means that
either he has a somehow different copy of FreeMono from the
distribution, or some other
The problem is not a bug in the texttopdf filter and so not a bug to be
fixed in the cups package. The bug is in the FreeMono font which is
provided by the ttf-freefont package. See e-mail cited below (Hin-Tak

I have the same problem. The CUPS documentation says the default cpi is 10, but
it looks like the cpi scaling is off.
If I print with lpr using default settings, I get 6 characters per inch.
If I print with lp -o cpi=10, I get 6.25 characters per inch.
If I print with lpr -o cpi=17, I get 10 chara
