[OpenIndiana-discuss] printing problem

[Marc Lobelle]

Hello,


I have a printing problem.

If I print from libreoffice or evince, everything works fine, but if I 
try to print from any other tool, say gedit, firefox, thunderbird, the 
pages are printed in the top left quarter of the sheet. Images are just 
too small but texts are printed in a font too large for the interline 
space and thus not only too small but also unreadable.

A workaround is to print in a pdf file instead then open the file in 
evince and print from there.


I read somewhere that cups is now "pdf oriented" which could explain 
that only pdf files are printed properly, but is there a way to tell all 
other programs to send files in pdf format to cups now .


I have the same problem on openindiana and solaris 11.


Thanks for your help


Marc
