Missing text on landscape printing
Closed this issue · 8 comments
Hi DarwinNE,
if you set "Horizontal page" in print menu box, all text in the page disappear.
Example:
If you print this

landscape printing is as follows
Instead, the vertical printing is normal
I encountered this problem on the following FidoCadJ versions:
0.2.24
0.2.25
0.2.26_gamma
Note for 0.2.26_gamma version: On the Print Preview window, the text always appears.
My test conditions are:
O.S. version: Ubuntu 14.04 LTS 64 bit - Linux 3.13.0-83-generic
Java version: 1.7.0_95
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea 2.6.4) (7u95-2.6.4-0ubuntu0.14.04.2)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM (build 24.95-b01, mixed mode)
Printer: EPSON Stylus SX610FW
Printer driver version: CUPS STP01187.PPD 5.2.10-pre2
This is all!!!
Bye, Max
Update:
View the most recently version released today, replace above the 0.24.6_gamma version with 0.24.6_delta.
Bye, Max
2th update:
Printing vertically this drawing (http://www.electroyou.it/forum/viewtopic.php?t=31581&p=641308#p641308 post [#302] @ mir) text does not appear, however.
Print test:
Bye, Max
Dear DarwinNE & Max2433BO, I charge the entire design code in my FidoCADj v0.24.6.delta and I print it in orizontal or vertical layout page of my printer, and I not have problem in printing text.
My O.S. is Windows8 and doPDF for printing PDF file.
Dear @Max2433BO
I tried to print the drawing and divert the result on a PDF file (it is very easy to do that on MacOSX); as @Cipollino, I obtain a correct result too.
Can you please try another font? Maybe "Courier New" is not installed in your system (the default font), the rendering on the screen is done with a substitution font and for an unknown reason this fails when printing.
Cheers,
D.
Hi DarwinNE,
I'm sorry but answer only now.
I don't think is a font problem, because the first example is printed vertically correctly with "Currier New" font (only in landscape printing missing text...).
Anyway I replaced the "Courier New" with "Verdana" font (for example) and I get the same results of the described just above.
... I'm sorry.
Bye, Max
Note:
Identical result with 0.24.6_epsilon version.
Dear DarwinNE & Max2433BO, I recharge again the entire design code in my FidoCADj v0.24.6.epsilon and I print it in orizontal or vertical layout page of my virtual printer doPDF and EPSON STYLUS PHOTO R265 = I not have problem in printing text.
My testing O.S. is WindowsXP & Windows8, but the result is the same = NONE PROBLEM
Very stranger Max2433BO.
Dear Max, is possible to you downloading and upgrade the Java virtual machine for avoid an eventual corrupted file ?
Bye for now.
I tried the latest version of Oracle jre available for Linux (1.8.0_77) and, unfortunately, the results are identical with last version of FidoCadj.
I don't know what else to try.
Bye Max.
Note:
To test I tried another java program (GeoGebra version 5.0.223.0) and, in the horizontal printing, has no problem with text:
@Max2433BO described in issue #90 that this also appears to be an issue related to OpenJDK and not to FidoCadJ, so I close this issue.
