Ah OK, thanks for the clarification.

Hmmm, I guess I can't argue with that, my usual foreign language test
cases worked well enough under mozilla/cups.  

I'm just a bit worried that some special case will turn up where the
Xprint output is still superior.  MathML, for instance, although it's
hard to test consistently since the browsers themselves still do not
render it satisfactorily and continually complain about fonts.  Have you
had a chance to test mathml printing?
