Printing from FB 0.7

Post by JQP »

I would like to print a page from FB. The print preview works fine, in that shows how the material will be printed. If I print it to a file, the file is created all right, containing the page I wanted to print, in PostScript. If I spool this file to my printer of choice, it gets printed fine. The problem: if I try and print directly from FB, without printing to a file first, the output gets sent to the printer all right - but what it prints is the PostScript source.

FB is the only application for which this happens - for example, I can print documents from Acrobat or gv without any problem. Also, I can print PostScript files from the Linux command line without any problems. FB is the only one doing the naughty thing.

Anybody got any suggestions? I am using Slackware 9.0, with CUPS for the print spooling.
