Re: gEDA-user: Trace width/quality



I had the same problem on a lo-end Brother HL10-h & a hi-end Lexmark
W810. it was like a plumbing maze with no elbows.

ggv was OK with postscript & pdf. My final film output was thru a
Harlequin RIP & Dainippon FT-R3050 film processor & it was fine, so I
didn't pursue it...
