Re: gEDA-user: schematic symbol text size for printing

2007-06-04 Thread Ed & Angie S.
I just thought I would make one more comment. After experimenting with the postscript-font-scale setting in system-gschemrc, I found a setting of 1.5 to result in near WYSIWIG between display and printer on my system. This makes 8 or 10 point font symbol text very readable on an A size printou

Mike, Thanks for the info. I didn't know about the adjustment you mentioned; it seems to work as you describe. While playing with the adjustment I've learned a bit more about my situation. All of the symbols I had created with the old gEDA used a font size of 8. Symbols created with the ne

Hi, Besides the font anchor point, there's also a fudge-factor adjustment you can apply in the system-gschemrc. This sets a scaling factor between gschem's internal units and the font size. This is needed because not all fonts are created equal. If this does not do the trick for you, can yo

I recently upgraded gEDA to the 02212007 CD release. I hadn't printed anything right after the upgrade but noticed today that the text size for schematic symbols when printed is much smaller than before the upgrade. The problem is very evident for symbols which use a line above part of the sig
