Hi,
I only use xpdf, so I don't have this problem but I just
noticed that I can't print any longer with this release of
firefox, the generated postscript beeing very strange. I first
thought that was an UTF8 problem, but I got the same behavior
with iso-8859-1 encoding.
So I re-install the previous release (1.5.0.12-0.3.el4) and I
can print afresh.
Does anybody see the same problem ?
