color printing ?

color printing ?

[Jean-Christophe Helary]

I was surprised to see the syntax highlighted buffer printed in b/w.

Is there an easy way to print the faces (ie. without htmlizing+pdfizing the buffer) ?

I think maybe ps-print-buffer-with-faces might help you.

Thank you Paul.

Would you know the reason why non-ascii characters are printed as ?????? ?

No idea sorry. But Emacs has always been a bit funny with Unicode support.

I tried to print a simple C buffer for my daughter and the default printout was in b/w, but all the Japanese characters were printed out nicely.

Then, after Paul's answer, I tried the ps-print-buffer-with-faces command and the syntax highlighting worked fine but all the Japanese characters were replaced by ???.

Then, after reading the documentation a bit, I tried to
(setq ps−multibyte−buffer ’non−latin−printer)

but now the Japanese characters are totally mojibaked:
 // $*$_$/$8$NFbMF0lMw

so I tried 'bfd-fonts and I got a weird message about having no font for ascii, and with 'bfd-fonts-except-latin, I'm back to ???

All that is so 20th century...

You will be better off reporting this as a bug and CC'ing Kenichi
Handa, who wrote ps-mule stuff.
