>When rizwaan says type1 fonts print better he means that he just installed a pfb and no pfm kerning file. 

Okay dude, I installed .pfm for the truetype font, created using Fontlab 5 in windows. 

I tried with:

1. ttf + pfm = crappy printout
2. ttf + AFM + PFB  = crappy printout
3. PFB+AFM = good printout
4. PFB+AFM+PFM = good printout
5. pfm only = Font not detected so no printout

What made you think that PFM+TTF+PFB will get a good printout?

Anyhow, if TTF installed will not get good prints! 

What a shame that KDE Print System don't know how to use afm/pfb/pfm when both TTF and type1 fonts are installed. And you are asking All 12,000 KDE desktops to remain shameful till KDE 4 (any release date?). see 12,000 desktops migrated to KDE -> http://dot.kde.org/1149886049.

And QTConfig doesn't help either! Disabling the Embedding will not print anything, even print preview is blank without font embedding!
