Hi,
I've noticed that with Firefox 3, output on my venerable PostScript
printer uses the wrong fonts.
A garbled bitmapped font is being substituted. If I revert to Firefox 2,
printed output is fine.
Haven't seen this with other apps.
Seen with a networked cups driven printer, specifically GCC Technologies
(ancient LaserWriter II compatible device). The remote printer server is
7.1-PRERELEASE w/cup 1.3.9. Connection is lpt0 (centronics).
