No it shouldn't. Though I've never actually tested it with collections as I don't use them myself.

Any chance you could have a go at fixing that? Alos there were some errors with Libprs500 that are in the log. Later today I'll power up the laptop and pull off the log and port it as a ticket. I'll also post the collection problem as well.

Open a bug report and I'll get around to it.

JSWolf · 06-18-2007, 12:07 PM

Will do!

kovidgoyal, just tried the latest version and with the variable margins the defaults have changed from before and in my eyes they now look awful (looked perfect before). Can you tell me what the defaults for the margins were before so I can add them on the command line?

kovidgoyal · 06-22-2007, 11:11 AM

Hmm not sure I remember correctly. Try 20, 20 for the left and right margins.

FangornUK · 06-22-2007, 11:59 AM

Just found an old LRF and compared it, appears to be 25 for left and right margins.

kovidgoyal · 06-22-2007, 12:06 PM

OK the right margin being set to 5 in the current version is a typo. I'll set both left and right margins to 20 as the default in the next release as I like that.

Please don't. I actually like the new margins as they are by default. Making them bigger puts them back to where I didn't like before.

kovidgoyal · 06-22-2007, 12:23 PM

Yeah but I prefer slightly bigger margins, and since I'm the author I get to decide the defaults ;-) Only the right margin is changing and the new value is smaller than the old one.

JSWolf · 06-22-2007, 01:43 PM

Why do people pefer to have bigger margins? It just ends up looking awful if you need/want to go to a larger font.

kovidgoyal · 06-22-2007, 02:06 PM

It does? That's not something I've noticed. But then I'm not the type to pay close attention to those kinds of details anyway.

Released v0.3.58 with support for embedding fonts. See the attached LRF file in the first post for a demo.

To use an embedded font the option is
--serif-family "/path/to/fonts/dir, font name"
For e.g.
--serif-family "C:\Windows\fonts, Times New Roman"

Enjoy.

JSWolf · 06-28-2007, 10:31 PM

So can I embed the italic font or the bold font if I wanted to?

kovidgoyal · 06-28-2007, 10:34 PM

Automatically embedded when you specify the family.
