Thanks Alton, but that didn't work.  The font settings under Tools->
Settings-> Mail Preferences just seem to change the fonts Evolution uses
to display the emails sent and don't seem to change anything about what
it sends to the printer.

This seems to be an Evolution problem.  I can do a print preview from
Mozilla and it looks just fine.  Same with gedit.  Evolution seems to be
changing the font when it sends the text to the lpr.

MadHat, are you having this trouble?  Anyone else using Evolution with
this same problem?  Incidentally, I'm using Evo 1.4.0.  I see that
MadHat is using 1.4.4...is that something Ximian fixed in the newer
version?

Wayne
