Hi, How do I know which fonts libgnomeprint actually can print? Basically, I'd like to present the user with a font dialog that only displays fonts which can be printed. Ideally, gnome-print could print all fonts that Pango can display on screen, but I'd like to be sure if that is the case. What (printer-)resolution does gnome-print use? The standard 72pts from Postscript or does it query the printer/cups about the printer's dpi? What is a GnomeFont in contrast to a PangoFont? If I want to avoid using libgnomeprintUI and I don't want/need to use the preview canvas, do I need much more than wrap gnome_print_config with a GUI? I'm always thinking of way how to reduce library dependencies since I only want to print. Thanks for any info, Robert
