Cups output only text, no graphics

Post by kleinempfaenger »

Hi,
I have problems with the output of virtual printer on Ubuntu. Installed cups-pdf and manually added virtual printer via browser interface. Printer is recognized by Wine.
Made a Gantt Chart with MS Project 2007 (need to do it) under Wine. Print Preview correct, but printed pdf shows only text, timeline graphics and legend wouldn't show. Later tried with MS Project 2003, virtual printer on Xubuntu. Same problem.
Is it possible to enable/disable graphics output in virtual printer? Or what could the problem be?

Thanks, kl

What version of Wine? If it's not the latest development release, upgrade. If it still doesn't work, post terminal output. http://wiki.winehq.org/FAQ#get_log

Made a test: Output from cups virtual printer of this page is the same as "print to file" virtual printer on Ubuntu. Graphical elements are drawn.

Ok, this is solved. Upgraded to wine 1.5 and everything is fine. Virtual printer works.
