Description Thomas Zehetbauer 2003-10-23 20:39:07 UTC 
When printing html e-mail messages from Ximian Evolution, text formatted as
'Arial' is rendered in 'Arioso', an ugly italic type sript font.

My temporary solutions is to install Arial from the Microsoft core fonts. As it
is not possible to include this font in the distribution I would recommend to
alias it so some othe sans-serif type font.

Finally gnome-print should be fixed to NEVER just fallback to the first font in
the list. If a font specified is not available it MUST print a warning message
and fallback to some standard font (maybe from the UI).
