The print menu contains the function ‘generic-print-buffer’. You can see that with C-h k and then clicking on the print menu entry. The documentation of ‘generic-print-buffer’ says: (You can get it with M-x describe-function RET generic-print-buffer RET).
Print buffer BUFFER using a printing method appropriate to the O.S. being run. Under Unix, `lpr' is normally used to spool out a no-frills version of the buffer, or the `ps-print' package is used to pretty-print the buffer to a PostScript printer. Under MS Windows, the built-in printing support is used.
Actually it never seems to use ps-print it always spools the no-frills version. But at least it works after applying the patch. To use ps-print to pretty-print a buffer, you can use M-x ps-print-buffer RET Closing as FIXED. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

You can find updated packages in http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/M17N/ The xemacs packages in the M17N repository use Xft/fontconfig to render fonts instead of X11 core fonts. I like that a lot and already use if for a long time but I was reluctant to switch the standard xemacs packages in openSUSE to use Xft/fontconfig. Unfortunately this is not choosable at runtime, using Xft/fontconfig is only a compile time option. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
