Re: Postscript printing, wrong margins



John,

Fixing these things can be a chore. I am working on printing solutions
and drivers but I have no intention to support fonts beyond the standard
postscript PostScript Level 2 set of 35 fonts. The GhostPCL interpreter
handles these well and there are good Xy drivers for these. Basically,
you are on your own for Xy3 support. Xy4 can better support these more
complex scenarios than Xy3.


Best regards,

Kari, I have no excuse for it, but this question remains a matter of interest. One xy3 postscript .prn file appears to offer Garamond support, but its width tables reference the TR table and what it produces is Palatino (with incorrect margins, as expected). I did install Garamond No. 8 but that's made no difference, the driver still doesn't produce Garamond. Any obvious solution to getting this font through PS? Most of the xy3 PS print files, including Apple's, don't offer support for Garamond. So maybe there's a reason? Anyway, thanks, it's an idle inquiry at best....
