Instead of converting to html, I think I will just open the file in the browser and print from there. DejaVu is also used as the default monospace in my browser. I am a bit surprised by your comment on postscript not supporting unicode. I successfully print unicode/DejaVu text files from gedit. Redirecting the output to a virtual printer, I get a well behaved postscript file that displays the DejaVu fonts without problem. From what I have seen, the unicode characters appearing in the text file are redefined in the postscript. I don't know what part of the gnome desktop generates the postscript though. Is there some plan (or obstruction) to implement that feature in emacs with ps-print ? That is, being able to print a buffer with the (unicode, ttf) font actually displayed in the buffer instead of the bdf default Courier ? Or maybe I can put it on the wishlist. Sincerely,
