Unanswered questions</A></H2> <P> <UL> <LI> Applications <P>The biggest unanswered question is why <CODE>netscape communicator</CODE> can use TrueType fonts, <CODE>ghostscript</CODE> can use the same TrueType fonts, yet pages printed by <CODE>netscape</CODE> look nothing like the screen. <P>The short answer is that <CODE>netscape</CODE> generates PostScript output with standard fonts (Helvetica and Times-Roman) instead of the user-specified or HTML-specified fonts. The long answer is that I have absolutely no idea why it forces this behavior, or if there is a way to override it. </LI> </UL> <P> <HR> <A HREF="TT-Debian-7.html">Next</A> <A HREF="TT-Debian-5.html">Previous</A> <A HREF="TT-Debian.html#toc6">Contents</A> </BODY> </HTML>
