• Bug#266542: xprt-xprintorg: xprint has "state"

    From Jan Willem Stumpel@1:229/2 to All on Wed Aug 18 11:20:08 2004

    Package: xprt-xprintorg
    Version: 0.0.9.final.001-2
    Severity: normal

    I noticed something strange about he way xprint handles printing the
    headers (and footers).

    With both mozilla and xprint started afresh, the headers are printed
    in Times-Roman (which is, I suppose, what it should be). The second
    and following times, they are printed in a kind of sans-serif font.
    So xprint (or at least the xprint/mozilla combination), while printing,
    sets something that remains active the next time it runs.

    Part of output of diff on the second and first generated postscript:

    72,73c72,73
    < /Times-Roman 42 t Tf
    < (Local Debian Start Page) 150 172 T
    ---
    /AvantGarde-Book 42 t Tf
    (Local Debian Start Page) 150 175 T

    Unlike other problems with xprint, this happens in exactly the same way
    with all HTML pages.

    Regards, Jan
