Frequently Asked Questions

Which coordinate system does gnome-print use?

Gnome-print uses the same coordinate system as PostScript page description language. I.e. initially the 0,0 is at lower-left corner of page, x grows to right, y upwards and one unit corresponds to 1/72th of inch. You can change coordinate system using following methods: gnome_print_translate (pc, x, y) gnome_print_scale (pc, xscale, yscale) gnome_print_concat (pc, matrix) If unsure, consult some textbook about computational geomtery.

Which application use gnome-print?

Current gnome-print relies entirely on underlying printing system for interfacing with actual printers. So it uses whatever libraries/prograsm your printing system use. In future it may implement direct drivers too, but of course, the general ones remain always present. Why my application should use gnome-print? After all it is not so difficult to produce PostScript manually and doing so gives me endless possibilities.

Can I use gnome-print from console programs?

Yes, you can. You still need X, Gtk+ and gnome to be installed, but X does not have to run on your machine. Of course, you cannot use print preview or printer selection widgets in that case. You also have to start your console program with gtk_type_init instead of gtk_init or gnome-init.

If you are using realatively modern GNU/Linux distribution chances are that gnome-print is already included in it. But as gnome-print is rapidly developing, you may want to check for updates.

What coordinate system does GeoLab use for adjustments?

GeoLab - FAQ
GeoLab performs adjustments and simulations (pre-analyses) in a three-dimensional ellipsoidal coordinate system. Because your measurements (observations) are made in the spatially three-dimensional world, this choice of a three-dimensional coordinate system results in the most rigorous (no approximations), accurate, and complete mathematical models (i.e. equations for the measurements in terms of the coordinates of stations) for the adjustment.

I found a bug in gnome-print. How should I report it?

The best way is to use gnome bug tracking system (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/). Bugs entered there are never forgot by developers, as bugs reported by email often are. If reporting bug, be as exact as possible. Code examples are great. If reporting bugs related to PostScript printing, try to attach resulting PostScript file in addition to description, how your program produced it.

How I can add fonts to gnome-print?

It depends of your gnome-print version. Up to version 0.26 you have to manually add these to fontmap file (found at PREFIX/fonts). Starting from version 0.27 you can use program gnome-font-install. Just run it, giving the directory(ies) with your font files (pfb and afm) as argument, and send output to either PREFIX/fontmap2 or ~/.gnome/fonts/fontmap.

Which text encoding gnome-print uses?

Please note, that several methods use glyph, not character value. Glyphs are actual printable shapes, as opposed to characters, that are language units - so single glyph may represent many characters (ligatures) or single character may be represented by several glyphs. Glyphs are font-dependent.

Why do you use KDE instead of Gnome, ICEWM, etc..?

DesktopBSD/FAQ's
KDE is easy to work with and has many useful features and well-integrated components such as the PIM package (Personal Information Manager). Additionally, KDE is probably easier for people that used Windows before, but this is rather a nice side-effect than a main reason for this choice.

Do I need a Gnome to use the iRecorder?

iRecorder Frequently Asked Questions || Visual Footprints
No. The iRecorder can operate independently, using cameras connected directly to the PC where the iRecorder is running. However, the use of Gnome does provide two key benefits: Images are retrieved from all of the cameras connected to Gnome, eliminating the need for a video capture card (see below).

Q26. What datum does Didger 2 use for the UTM coordinate system?

Golden Software: Didger Version 2 FAQ
To export a projected raster project to a vector file in Didger 2.05, select all the digitized objects and go to File | Export. In the Export dialog box, check the check box in the lower left next to Selected Objects Only and export as normal. Exporting to a DAT file was a problem in earlier versions of Didger 2 (versions 2.00 and 2.01) when calibrated coordinates increase from right to left on the X axis, increase downwards on the Y axis, or one of the axes was logarithmic in scale.

What does Bakery give me that GNOME or gnomemm doesn't?

Bakery FAQ
GTK+ and GNOME provide some widgets and some desktop and application services. gtkmm and gnomemm wraps these for use in C++. But GNOME doesn't help the developer to put them all together to make an application. For instance, the developer still has to write code to warn the user when they have unsaved data, and to ask the user where to save that data.
