The CUPS package in Jaunty uses a Ghostscript-based pdftops filter and so the problem should not occur there. To get the problem solved in Intrepid I suggest an SRU on CUPS letting pdftops only producing PostScript level 2. This is understood by all PostScript level 3 printers and is sophisticated enough to print all jobs.
This does not mean that no fix is needed in HPLIP. There is still a bug in amny PostScript level 3 printers from HP, so the HP developers should supply an appropriate workaround in the PPD files coming with HPLIP. There are enough users which are using HPLIP with an unpatched version of CUPS 1.3.9 or older. ** Also affects: cups (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Changed in: cups (Ubuntu) Status: New => Fix Released -- hp laserjet postscript text print does not print some characters https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/277404 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to gtk+2.0 in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
