Yes, I think so. it would be less troublesome to get this working. I will need to file another bug to modify cjktexttops in cups to replace h2ps and bg5ps to paps anyway. so I will notice the change of the dependency as well. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ___ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review

We might actually want to just have cups depending on it by default so that people always have it if it's not large (I wouldn't think it is) Beyond that, I'm okay with this going in for now to replace h2ps and bg5ps but with the understanding that it may be superceded again shortly.

Well, there are some required features from CUPS side too. using this as an replacement of a commandline printing tool such as a2ps is also one of the way though, the main thing are to work together on CUPS and to replaces the various printing filters which is just kept to get CJK printing working as I described earlier. no particular advantages there.

Yeah, I'm already trying to push the pango-view tool as a stable maintained tool (instead of an example), and it's been packaged in pango-devel for a while now. I also have wanted to add PS/PDF output support to it for a while. Main thing that needs to be done before pango-view can be used like paps is to make it break text into paragraphs before laying out (for performance reasons.) I'm actually not sure that paps does that.

Ok, what about having a simple shell script called u2ps shipped and advertised in Core with a documented command line interface, and make it call paps as the implementation for now, but leave it open to switch to pango-view later on... The interface should be quite simple, a cat-like tool with the following options: --landscape --portrait (Default) --font (--font-size, --font-family, ...?) --margin --margin-left --margin-right --margin-top --margin-bottom --header=[TEXT] --footer=[TEXT] That should be enough for now, and (except for footer?) paps supports the rest already, with different namings possibly. Another thing that should work in u2ps but is not currently working in paps is setting default paper size based on LC_PAPER.

We are focusing to improve the CIJK handling of the text printing and paps was a better candidate at that time - this was being developed since PS/PDF backend for cairo was experimental or before that, which wasn't relied on - We have decided to work on paps because it may be close to become successful at RHEL5 timeframe so that the improvement of CIJK text printing is our goal for RHEL5. plus, we have no enough time to make an another replacement from scratch so that FC6t1 will be coming soon. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ___ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review

It should be a matter of a weekend's work to get someone write a paps-like a2ps replacement using pangocairo. This can be fixed later of course, and the upstream author already knows about this and may in fact do it himself. My other concern with paps as it stands now is its command line interface that we have to keep if we push it into Core. Instead of --fontscale and --family for example, it should have a single --font that takes a Pango font description. Such a tool can be included in Pango upstream in fact. If there's no strong reason for having paps or a similar tool in Core for FC6, I suggest postponing this and working on the replacement tool. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ___ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review

Well, there are some required features from CUPS side too. using this as an replacement of a commandline printing tool such as a2ps is also one of the way though, the main thing are to work together on CUPS and to replaces the various printing filters which is just kept to get CJK printing working as I described earlier. no particular advantages there. That is in my todo anyway. > Another thing that should work in u2ps but is not currently working in paps is > setting default paper size based on LC_PAPER.

Ok, it's probably a feature that needs to be implemented. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ___ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review

Yeah, I'm already trying to push the pango-view tool as a stable maintained tool (instead of an example), and it's been packaged in pango-devel for a while now. I also have wanted to add PS/PDF output support to it for a while. Main thing that needs to be done before pango-view can be used like paps is to make it break text into paragraphs before laying out (for performance reasons.) I'm actually not sure that paps does that. But anyway, I probably will get to doing that sooner or later, but can't make any promise at this point. > > If there's no strong reason for having paps or a similar tool in Core for > > FC6, I > > suggest postponing this and working on the replacement tool. > > We are focusing to improve the CIJK handling of the text printing and paps > was a > better candidate at that time - this was being developed since PS/PDF backend > for cairo was experimental or before that, which wasn't relied on - We have > decided to work on paps because it may be close to become successful at RHEL5 > timeframe so that the improvement of CIJK text printing is our goal for RHEL5. > plus, we have no enough time to make an another replacement from scratch so > that > FC6t1 will be coming soon. Ok, what about having a simple shell script called u2ps shipped and advertised in Core with a documented command line interface, and make it call paps as the implementation for now, but leave it open to switch to pango-view later on... The interface should be quite simple, a cat-like tool with the following options: --landscape --portrait (Default) --font (--font-size, --font-family, ...?) --margin --margin-left --margin-right --margin-top --margin-bottom --header=[TEXT] --footer=[TEXT] That should be enough for now, and (except for footer?) paps supports the rest already, with different namings possibly. Another thing that should work in u2ps but is not currently working in paps is setting default paper size based on LC_PAPER. We can make the wrapper figure out the paper and pass it to paps for now, and use it to set page size later with pango-view. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ___ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review

We are focusing to improve the CIJK handling of the text printing and paps was a better candidate at that time - this was being developed since PS/PDF backend for cairo was experimental or before that, which wasn't relied on - We have decided to work on paps because it may be close to become successful at RHEL5 timeframe so that the improvement of CIJK text printing is our goal for RHEL5. plus, we have no enough time to make an another replacement from scratch so that FC6t1 will be coming soon. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ___ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review

Summary: Review Request: paps https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=192912 --- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006-06-11 23:49 EST --- Just a note that most (if not all) of the code in libpaps.c is essentially deprecated now that cairo has PS/PDF backends being enabled for FC6. It should be a matter of a weekend's work to get someone write a paps-like a2ps replacement using pangocairo. This can be fixed later of course, and the upstream author already knows about this and may in fact do it himself. My other concern with paps as it stands now is its command line interface that we have to keep if we push it into Core. Instead of --fontscale and --family for example, it should have a single --font that takes a Pango font description. Such a tool can be included in Pango upstream in fact. If there's no strong reason for having paps or a similar tool in Core for FC6, I suggest postponing this and working on the replacement tool. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ___ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@redhat.com http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
