Unicode support in PDriverPS
| Reported by: | Sprow (202) | Severity: | Enhancement |
| Part: | RISC OS: Module | Release: | |
| Milestone: | Status | Open |
Details by Sprow (202):
Ref Ticket #178, the PDriverPS module was never updated in the unicode font work, therefore out-of-the-box !Printers can’t print from unicode aware applications, such as !NetSurf.

One option to move on this would be to use Font_SwitchOutputToBuffer to get font manager to reduce all the Font_Paint calls into a load of draw objects, which can themselves be rendered already via postscript. It’d produce terrible postscript (and lots of it) but is at least simpler than having to handle UCS natively.
