|  Hello Joel!
|
|  Well, printing from KWord 1.1 and KDE 2.2.x was working for me.

|
|  I think your current problem that fonts are not installed correctly.
|  Check wether:
|  1) there is a /etc/X11/XftConfig file on your system
|  2) it has references (lines) like:
|  dir "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
|  dir "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/TrueType"
|  3) those directories have some fonts inside :-)
|
|  --> than run from command line #xftcache
|  4) than open, say,
|  dir "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1"
|  and look for XftCache file.
|  It should have some font names inside.
|  5) Try to use these fonts in KWord.
|
|  Hope this helps a litle bit!
|
|  P.S. well, if this *doesn't work* for you - well, you should look for a
| better distribution...
