If I install Mozilla Firefox 1.0 and Thunderbird 0.9 manually, by downloading the installers/files from the Mozilla web site, everything works fine (well, almost, except that I have to install all the plug ins for Firefox manually - a painful process for me!). If I install the same applications using SuSE provided packages MozillaFirefox and MozillaThunderbird, the applications work fine. However, if I go to an email or web site, and choose to print to a file, and choose a .ps file. The ps file is generated fine and I can view it fine. However, running that .ps file through ps2pdf, the output pdf file in all gibberish (really the text appears to be reduced to lines, embedded images are fine). I did some looking around on The Net and found a few pointers. Some suggested changing the print command in Firefox, some suggested playing around with the fonts directory in Firefox. None of these suggestions helped me at all. Knowing that the .ps file produced by a manual install of these applications converted to pdfs successfully, I copied the printer command and font directory settings from a manual install and input them into the installation performed using SuSE's RPMS. However, no luck, the ps files thus produced still do not successfully translate into pdfs. Has anyone else experienced this and, more importantly, does anyone has a solution? I am very curious as to why I have functionality with my manual install that the vendor's RPMS do not :P Thanks in advance for any help, --Moby They that can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety. -- Benjamin Franklin First they came for the Jews and I did not speak out because I was not a Jew.
