|
Hi, there! Yes I'm having YAOOPP. I recently tried several OpenOffice versions (1.0.1, 1.0.2, 1.0.3 and 1.1beta) and I'm having the same problem In all of them. I had problems before on printing but that was because I didn't RTFM (It was a PPD problem). Now my print works ok except for two problems:
a) It's terribly slow. I mean that the printer actually prints slow, not that it starts a loy to print.
b) Fonts print thick, that is thicker than they print on other apps.
I have printed on Galeon and it prints very nice, damn fast and fonts print nice. I have tried all combinations of resolution in OpenOffice but I always get the same result. I'm using a HP Deskjet 940C and CUPS. Is this a fail in OO or is it a configuration issue? On the other side I have to use OO because os cross-platform needs. Can this be due to the fact that I'm printing with Verdan font? (It prints correctly on Windows) I think I have installed it correctly since it shows well on all my apps... Any help is welcome.
P.D.: I have also installed the fonts in the spadmin utility. |
