OK. I had it working before. It was sweet. But upon
doing a new SuSE install, I can't seem to get Japanese
printing under FF to work again. However, a few things
are different.

This time, I'm guessing that font embedding is enabled
-- that is, FF is embedding the fonts into the ps file
when printing because GS doesn't complain about
missing fonts. However the resulting mozilla.ps file
is around 320k which I think is about the same size as
the file generated when I didn't have font-embedding
working so I'm not sure about that.

I'm curious to know what turns font embedding on and
off when printing from FF. It would not seem to be the
qtconfig setting right off because even when I turn
off font embedding there, the resulting ps filesize
seems to be the same as when printer font embedding is
enabled as well as the fonts refered to within the
resulting printed ps file. 

While I'm at it, do qtconfig settings have any bearing
on any of this?

The ps file currently being generated has lots of
Numbus fonts which clearly are not Japanese fonts. So
how do I convince FF to output using a Japanese font?
FF displays Japanese just fine using SuSE's Japanese
fonts or other Japanese TT fonts I have installed.
Just can't get to them when printing.

BTW I have wrappers generated for all of my installed
Japanese fonts, so I think that as long as GS had a
file with Japanese text and refered to a Japanese font
then I would be in business.

ghostscript tells me that the fonts embedded in my ps
file are
