TrueType Fonts in Debian mini-HOWTO: Unanswered questions Next Previous Contents

6. Unanswered questions

  • Applications

    The biggest unanswered question is why netscape communicator can use TrueType fonts, ghostscript can use the same TrueType fonts, yet pages printed by netscape look nothing like the screen.

    The short answer is that netscape generates PostScript output with standard fonts (Helvetica and Times-Roman) instead of the user-specified or HTML-specified fonts. The long answer is that I have absolutely no idea why it forces this behavior, or if there is a way to override it.
