Description Dave Malcolm 2005-02-17 00:13:19 UTC
Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
are doing.

Description of Problem:
Currently calendar printing uses the old gnome_print_show API for rendering
text; this is broken from an i18n standpoint.

I'm tracking this downstream here:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=138075

and I have a patch.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Import this file: http://ical.mac.com/ical/Japanese32Holidays.ics
2. Try to print it

Actual Results:
Printing with non-Roman characters appearing

Expected Results:
All of the kanji characters appear as hollow boxes.



How often does this happen?

Comment 3 André Klapper 2005-03-05 14:42:35 UTC
adding patch keyword
Comment 4 Kjartan Maraas 2005-07-03 16:55:21 UTC
Marking first patch obsoleted by the second one.
Comment 5 André Klapper 2005-09-25 01:07:45 UTC
still has not been committed to evo cvs; retargetting to 2.5.

this is not an enhancement as dave states that characters appear as "hollow boxes".
Comment 6 André Klapper 2006-05-13 15:37:08 UTC
definitely a 2.7 issue.
raising priority as this bites international users.
Comment 7 Chenthill P 2006-06-14 11:12:58 UTC
The patch looks good. This has been taken into stable as well as cvs HEAD. The problem of the UTF8 characters not appearing in the print preview still appears. Dave, what is the version of pango which needs to be used ?
Comment 8 makuchaku (Mayank) 2006-12-21 17:07:43 UTC
I think Bug 355766 – "Multi-lang text in Body is not printed when composing in ASCII mode" can help as per comment 7
Comment 9 Matthew Barnes 2009-02-17 02:36:37 UTC
Closing this as OBSOLETE since we don't use GnomePrint anymore.
