Bug 3478

Summary:	Printing html rendered message makes printout use extra super small font
Product:	Claws Mail (GTK 2)	Reporter:	daniel <daniel.hrbac>
Component:	Plugins/Fancy	Assignee:	users
Status:	RESOLVED FIXED
Severity:	trivial
Priority:	P3
Version:	3.12.0
Hardware:	PC
OS:	Windows 7

With version 13.2. Claws, when messages are rendered using Fancy plugin, it no longer crashes on my Windoes 7 PC when I try to print message. Instead the printout uses extra small font. It is like font size 1 or maybe 0,1. 

I am aware of general attitude here towards Fancy plugin and HTML messages in general, but this is an error anyway which should be resolved in two possible ways:

(A) When printed, Fancy rendered appearance will be ignored and email will be printed in plain text in proper font size.

(B) When printed, Fancy rendered appearance will be preserved and proper font size will be used.

This seems to be a bug with WebkitGTK that happens with newer versions of GTK+:
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49502
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=124226
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143563

It doesn't seem that Webkit developers have even acknowledged this bug yet, but good news is that the patch from bug 124226 works, and with it, the printing seems to be zoomed properly.

I will watch these Webkit bug reports to see what happens, but for now, I think the patch should suffice. Patched Webkit will be included in next Windows release of Claws Mail, hopefully sometimes next week.

Ok, thank You. I had some crashes with claws and reportedly libgtk-win32-2.0-0.dll
should be guilty. So that probably might be the cause. will wait for new version than.
