Subject: Any font size other than 12 gives printing woes

Hi All,
I'm having the most frustrating problem printing documents
with Abi under Linux (Slackware 8.0). Thing is, when I print
with a 12 point font, everything comes out fine, but any other
size and the lines get chopped in half. For instance:
This is a line of text I would like to print.
Becomes:
This is a line of text
I would like to print.
I suspected my printer driver at first, but it turns out that
prnting to file gives the same results. A doc formatted with
12 point text prints fine, but the same doc at 10 point comes
out like the example above. It looks fine on screen, it's just
the conversion to postscript that goes haywire. I'm running
Ghostscript 5.50, but Abi does its own internal PS conversion,
right?
To be more specific about my setup... It's Slack 8 running
Xfree86 v 4.1.0 and I've tried with the binary for gtk and
binaries I compiled myself for straight gtk (no Gnome... no...
never.. aieee!!) <grin>
Anyhow... has anyone else seen this behaviour? Is it maybe
even a known bug that I haven't found on the website? Any
comments are much appreciated.
Thanks,
Jonathan
