Printing issue

Hi Erman!
We have 12.2.5 UTF8 instance.
Printing PDF report with polish characters is fine to the same postscript printer
Printing pay slip postscript file to the same printer with polish characters -> weird characters.
Looking on unix at this postscript file looks fine, all characters looks fine.

So its when sending postscipt file to the postscript printer is problem.
Any hints where to look at ?
Thanks,Julie

Hi Julie,

How did you implement this configuration?

Reference:

The Postscript format is fully supported under the UTF8 character set. It has few limitations. Ensure Pasta / IX library is installed as per Note 356501.1 "How to Setup Pasta Quickly and Effectively"

*did you follow 356501.1 ?
*Do you have those fonts installed in your Unix?
Ref:OL5 : Chinese Fonts Printing Junk Characters (Doc ID 2238756.1) -> Chinese fonts are printing properly through printer configured on Linux OL5.x sever (printing junk characters) whereas the file can be viewed properly using 'vim', 'cat'. CAUSE: Package containing Chinese fonts is not installed.
