Package: kwrite
Version: KDE 2.2.2 
Severity: normal
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: problem reproduced with SuSE RPMs for SuSE 7.1 and 7.3 \
(ftp.suse.com/suse/i386/supplementary/KDE)

With the current kwrite I get nearly unusable printouts when syntax highlighting is \
enabled.

Spacing between letters and words seems to vary randomly which leeds to an almost \
unreadable layout. It seems as if many blanks would be in the text which aren't \
there.

for example: the line 

vector<Thermometer_impl *> thermoList;

looks in the printout like (roughly)

vector   < Thermometer_impl *     >  thermoList;

Here's an example (all 4 files are from printouts of the same C++ file):

In Postscript:

<a href="http://www.hillier.de/kwrite-correct.ps">correct version (with highlighting \
disabled) (~100k)</a>

<a href="http://www.hillier.de/kwrite-wrong.ps">correct version (with highlighting \
enabled) (~200k)</a>

If you don't want to download these two big files, I've made two PNGs showing three \
lines from the above postscript files.

<a href="http://www.hillier.de/kwrite-correct.png">correct version (with highlighting \
disabled) (~2k)</a>

<a href="http://www.hillier.de/kwrite-wrong.png">correct version (with highlighting \
enabled) (~2k)</a>

Good luck in finding the bug! ;)
