Off course I have read it many times; this shit doesnn't explain me straight forward. >Read the part of the handbook that discusses fixing the stair-step effect. >Another option (recommended!) would be to use a better input filter for >printing.

You can find it in the ports like >this: > >cd /usr/ports && make search key=apsfilter > >Apsfilter can handle many file types (postscript, etc.) and print them out >properly. > >Yon Thulung_rai wrote: > > > Hi all, > > > > I have reinstall 3.4 freebsd on my pc.
