Print to file resulting non-printable ps file

Hi all,
Okay, I stumbled to yet another printing problem. This is on Redhat Enterprise
Linux 3, Abiword compiled from source using --with-gnome options in
configure.

When I tried to print to a file to get output.ps file, then open the output.ps
file with ggv for printing, ggv or gv cannot print it. Basically nothing
happened. Althought the content of the file showed correctly in ggv, it just
won't print (am I losing my mind?? ). The funny thing, in ggv, the page
number is not showed on the left side. Instead it showed somekind of the path
of the output.ps file.

I thought I did something wrong, so I tried this on Abiword (2.0.1) that
shipped with Fedora Core 1. It's the gnome version also. Exactly the same
thing happen. output.ps shows fine in ggv, but is not printable.

To get the output.ps file, basically I chose "Generic Postscript" for printer,
and "File" location in Gnome printing dialog.

The GTK version (configured without --with-gnome, just plain ./configure)
works fine producing a .ps file that is printable (provided that I click the
"Embed Font" checkbox in the dialog box).

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance.
