thanks
I saw that the pdfs for some languages suffer from some problems,
for example the copyright notice does not display all lines being
set up in the po file.
While playing around with this, I found that there is probably room
for improvement for the languages Czech, Greek and Slovak.
When building the pdfs with
make USE_DBLATEX=2 refcard-XX-a4.pdf
(this means using dblatex instead of xmlroff) I get a pdf with a correct
copyright notice, coloured URLs and better usage of the available space
on the sheet (somewhat smaller fonts, and no unused space as it was
before for Greek). And Greek gets some free space on the sheet, that was
very critical before, as the Greek language needs much space apparently.
There was absolutely no free space on the sheet before for Greek, the
whole space was needed.
A patch is attached, which changes the Makefile to build the above
languages accordingly.
What is needed next is a proofread of the resulting pdfs by mother-tongue
speakers for that languages, to ensure the displaying of fonts is still
ok, and the like.
I will try to get some proofreading on the respective l10n lists.
Best regards
Holger
