Sending the PostScript file directly to a native PostScript printer, for example using the command
nc -w1 <IP address of printer> 9100 < Grammar\ 4.ps leads to a printout in a reasonable time (2-3 pages quickly one after each other, then 5 seconds pause, 2-3 pages again and so forth). This means that the PostScript IS awkward, but GhostScript is really TOO slow, meaning that there is room for improvement/fixing in Ghostscript. Independent of this, the djvu software used by evince needs improvement, too, once it should generate better, easier to process PostScript, and second it should be able to directly convert djvu into PDF, as PDF is THE standard format for printable documents under all operating systems (please consider reporting an upstream bug here, too. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/525161 Title: sometimes it's never print out any page and hangs on To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/evince/+bug/525161/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
