Hello,
I have just installed Firefox 1.0 from the SUSE FTP server.
When I attemp to change fonts as Francesco suggested
(serif with suse serif, sans serif with suse sans)
suse serif and suse sans are not in the list provided under
edit | preferences | Fonts & Colours

Anybody know how to make them available on those lists?

John

Hello, I recently installed SUSE 9.1 Pro on a laptop and on a desktop. Both
are connected over an Ethernet network to a HP Laserjet 4000N printer. I set
both up using the YAST GUI: YAST | Hardware | Printer, configured the
printer with the correct IP address, Set the model as HP Laserjet 4000,
printed a sample page and it worked fine. However, when I print a page from
a browser, the fonts are changed. Some of them are changed to one that is
very difficult to read. The problem occurs from both the laptop and desktop.
From Windows on both, there is no problem. One of the machines had Suse 9.0
personal before, and there was no problem. Any ideas? regards, John I had
the same problem with Mozilla, I found that after changing the default fonts
(edit->preferences->appearence->fonts) (i.e. serif with suse serif, sans
serif with suse sans) printing is fine
Francesco




These are my settings:
Proportional: Sans Serif
Serif: SuSE Serif
Sans Serif: SUSE Sans
Cursive: SUSE Sans
Fantasy: SUSE Sans
Monospace: Bitstream Vera Sans

For the item Proportional, only Sans Serif or Serif options are available. Instead of SUSE serif and SUSE Sans you can use other fonts. The fundamental point is "do not use serif and/or sans serif"
