About ps-mule
-------------
This package is used for ps-print to print multi-byte buffer.
See also ps-print.el.
Printing Multi-byte Buffer
--------------------------
The variable ps-multibyte-buffer specifies the ps-print multi-byte buffer
handling.
Valid values for ps-multibyte-buffer are:
nil This is the value to use the default settings;
by default, this only works to print buffers with
only ASCII and Latin characters. But this default
setting can be changed by setting the variable
ps-mule-font-info-database-default differently.
The initial value of this variable is
ps-mule-font-info-database-latin (see
documentation).
non-latin-printer This is the value to use when you have a japanese
or korean PostScript printer and want to print
buffer with ASCII, Latin-1, Japanese (JISX0208 and
JISX0201-Kana) and Korean characters. At present,
it was not tested with the Korean characters
printing. If you have a korean PostScript printer,
please, test it.
bdf-font This is the value to use when you want to print
buffer with BDF fonts. BDF fonts include both latin
and non-latin fonts. BDF (Bitmap Distribution
Format) is a format used for distributing X's font
source file. BDF fonts are included in
intlfonts-1.2 which is a collection of X11 fonts
for all characters supported by Emacs. In order to
use this value, be sure to have installed
intlfonts-1.2 and set the variable
bdf-directory-list appropriately (see ps-bdf.el
for documentation of this variable).
bdf-font-except-latin This is like bdf-font except that it uses
PostScript default fonts to print ASCII and Latin-1
characters. This is convenient when you want or
need to use both latin and non-latin characters on
the same buffer. See ps-font-family,
ps-header-font-family and ps-font-info-database.
Any other value is treated as nil.
The default is nil.
