Description jeanvanwyk 2005-01-25 05:23:12 UTC
Description of Problem:
The Print preview window does not follow font changes in preferences
(behavior differs from INBOX)

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Create a draft message
2. Play with font settings.  (Sans 8/10 Monpsace 8/10)
3. Re-open Print preview after each change.

Actual Results:
The fonts used stays the same (differs from behavior in IMAP INBOX folder).

Expected Results:
Fonts should act the same no matter which folder 

How often does this happen? 
Always

Additional Information:
The font does not consistently become larger when you change the font in
the INBOX folder (Print preview).  I have found that the largest font was
used when using Sans 8 and Monospace 8 and the smallest font is used when
Sans 8 and Monospace 10 is used

how do you change fonts for the print preview?
Comment 2 André Klapper 2005-01-31 12:03:25 UTC
adding keyword
Comment 3 jeanvanwyk 2005-01-31 21:01:40 UTC
The Print Preview windows font is in some way tied to the combination
of Fonts that the user can select in: Tools/Settings -> Mail
Preferences (General tab).

Playing with the combination has an influence on the font used in
Print Preview if you are in the INBOX (see http://bugzilla.ximian.com/show_bug.cgi?id=7174) -> but not the
DRAFT folder.
Comment 4 Not Zed 2005-02-01 03:58:53 UTC
messages saved in the draft folder are full html mails, so that if you
re-open them and change the editing mode, you lose no information. 
they are only converted to non-html when you send them.

so drafts viewing/print preview is using the fonts specified in the
mail/the proportional font, not the fixed-font.  and it appears to
override the size.

this might just be a duplicate of the html fonts not changing like
with the zoom thing.

bouncing to gtkhtml maintainers for comment.
Comment 5 Subodh Soni 2005-05-27 05:41:18 UTC
I am able to reproduce it in the following versions of gtkhtml packages in
evolution 2.2.2:
gtkhtml2-3.6.2.0.200505251324-0.snap.novell.0.1
libgtkhtml-2.6.1-2.1

The font kerning patch in bug #446894 fixes this.
