Date: Mon, 13 May 2019 12:22:42 +0200 [thread overview]

Hey Guix!
Unfortunately this is something that affects also printing from
pdfs. At this point I can see what my printing result will look like
by opening it in GNU Emacs DocView.
Maybe another way would be to package ghostscript the way Arch does?
It's gs gave me the best quality results I've had on any distro.
Main differences:
- no patches
- more libraries are provided from the system than currently in Guix.
Reference:
https://git.archlinux.org/svntogit/packages.git/tree/trunk/PKGBUILD?h=packages/ghostscript
https://www.archlinux.org/packages/extra/x86_64/ghostscript/
Unfortunately so far I haven't had the time to modify package in such
manner, but I'd be glad to do any testing necessary for this bug to be
fixed as it is the only blocker of my daily usage of GNU Guix System.
