Description Jatin Nansi 2004-11-04 13:58:31 UTC
Description of problem:
When printing a mail with indic text from evolution, the indic text is
printed with the bold font, regardless of the onscreen formatting. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
libgnomeprint22-2.8.0-2

How reproducible:
Every time

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Compose a mail in evolution with indic
2. print mail to ps file
3.
  
Actual results:
all indic text is printed in bold face

Expected results:
printing should use regular face

Additional info:
- This was tested with gujarati and hindi text. 
- The bold lohit font is not yet included in CVS - its available from:
  http://bob.brisbane.redhat.com/~jnansi/pkgs/
- I have also tested by formatting part of the text as bold, italics, 
  etc. In all cases, the printed output allways uses the bold face.

Comment 8 Akira TAGOH 2006-09-12 08:40:30 UTC
We are not going to include any bold fonts for Indic. so this will not be fixed
in this product anyway.
