Yes, I know that.  But, don't you have to tell: "QPainter" which font to use for: "drawText"?

This (slightly edited) was posted by Stephan Kulow:

http://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=1872&action=view
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=60105

public slots:
     void prnt()
     {
	QPrinter pr;
	if (pr.setup()) {
	    QPainter p(&pr);Does this have anything to do with the problem?
	    QFont f1("Times New Roman PS");
	    p.setFont(f1);
	    p.drawText(0, 0, "Foo and bar");
	    QFont f2("Comic Sans MS");
	    p.setFont(f2);
	    p.drawText(0, 40, "More text");
	}
     }
};

This snippet of code is using the font name rather than the PostScript font name.

Is this the problem? that Qpainter is being passed the wrong font name?

Or, OTOH, if Qpainter is supposed to use the font name to fetch the PostScript font name, 
then that is the problem.
