Comment 5 for bug 933489

First version of a design from Emily Maher (Canonical Design). Nick Tait notes that:

  "It incorporates the following:

    CMYK, RGB and Greyscale colour blocks
    Ubuntu dot pattern
    Keyline for printer nozzle check"

  Emily has typeset the printer info in a set position using Ubuntu monospace.

Lars: can you auto-generate the bottom half from 'bannertopdf' at run-time?

Notes from looking at the PDF source:

  1. The RGB colours are being set using the 'K' command (CMYK colour operator), rather than 'RG' (RGB colour operator).
  2. There a massive load of RDF fluff that could be trimmed, including preview JPEGs
  3. Each dot is being drawn a separate push stack, set matrix, moveto 0,0 four arc commands, etc. This could be optimised a bit.
  4. The embedded font is referencing the name 'UbuntuMonospacedBeta'.

This are all minor technical issues and shouldn't affect the design/implementation.
