Re: bidi text printing




It should now be ingrained in all our heads that everything we do MUST
be under the auspices of that work making it back to the main application.

dont understand that...


Sounds like maybe 'txttops' needs to have Bidi and Shaping added to it
then :-)  You might want to take a very _quick_ peek at my addition of
Bidi and Shaping to txtbdf2ps (for the record I know NOTHING about ps),

correct, IF and ONLY IF, it doesnt already work...


Again we are interested in,

$ lpr my_arabic_utf8.txt


i cant confirm that my lp and lpr dont print arabic because i dont have type1 fonts... and if i cant confirm that they dont print arabic, i wont attempt to fix it... i.e "dont fix it if it aint broken", and the issue will hang around and wont get resolved....


so, in conclusion to all the CUPS posts, someone who knows linux "Well" needs to confirm that lp and lpr dont print arabic... i am a newbie, i.e "7omar linux" so i cant do that :)

ak.
