Re: Printing not working at all...

[Gregory Casamento]

I thought it was clipping as well... it's actually not.  If you blow up the rendering and look closely it is because the characters are right on the top of the page.   I'm aware of the other issues.   I've moved everything to a branch "printing_fixes" so that it doesn't interfere with the trunk.

Hi,

​I'm not so sure that the scaling is wrong in the case of a single page.  It is most definitely wrong in the case of multiple logical pages.  My approach was to tackle one problem at a time as I understand the issues with printing better.

While testing NetBSD/lprd/cairo and Ink, I noticed that the text gets clipped at the top, the whole page is shifted too much.

1) with a document that fits inside a page, the text starts just a little before the actual beginning, it has a negative border
2) with a document spanning two pages, I get a very large margin on top on both the first and the second page.

Graphos continues to work fine.
