Hope that last couple of :) was a smile? I'm sure you can, please read on 
below.

 I enclose an output from your program, which interestingly is identical to 
the output of my original code - scrunched up writing, so at least you can 
now see what I mean. This is probably not a proper pdf file, however it is an 
exact replication of what comes out my printer.

ie my original code:  draw.RichText(TextEdit1.text, produces essentially the 
same output as the scrunched up text you see in the file I enclose

I use my system (archlinux) daily, print out prodigious quantities of stuff 
from everywhere - from the virtual machine it runs, to ordinary linux 
programs like kwrite, open office, adobe, kpdf etc, so I don't think this is 
a cups problem here.

Do you think there is a bug in the richtext stuf that works in one environment 
and not others. I mean, I assume that when you print out from your programm 
the richtext shows up ok on the printout.

I think you shouldn't abandon this issue, but together we (all) should track 
it down, because from posting I;ve put on another forum , someone else tried 
to acheive the same thing and got the same squished up result as I did.

Awaiting your thoughts.

Richard
