Hi Mark,
I've also had problems with kerning in the past + all
my fonts printed bolder than they should do.
It stopped being a problem when I changed
distributions, although it is still not perfect now. I
suspect there is (still) a problem with Qt.
But printing in linux is apparently complicated. I
think that nobody really can comment here unless they
know what system, what printing system, what fonts etc
you use. And if all this is correctly installed.
There is a question about font replacement in the FAQ
http://koffice.kde.org/faq/#InprintoutKOfficereplacessomeofmyfontswithdifferentfonts
There is also http://www.linuxprinting.org/news.html
and http://printing.kde.org/documentation/handbook/
These links may help you to learn where the problem
is. Try also different fonts, from different
founderies. I have installed some truetype fonts that
came with Corel Draw and they work really well, but
Arial from Microsoft and some other fonts from MS look
look rather lousy.
