[BUG] Colored tags generate an error when C-x C-w'ing the agenda

[BUG] Colored tags generate an error when C-x C-w'ing the agenda

[Sebastien Vauban]

Hello,

If you have colors for tags:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
  ;; faces for specific tags
  (setq org-tag-faces
        '(("home" .
           (:slant italic
            :foreground "#5C88D3" :background "#BBDDFF"))
          ("work" .
           (:slant italic
            :foreground "#5F7C43" :background "#C1D996"))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

you can't export the agenda views anymore; they all generate the following
error:

#+begin_src text
  Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument listp "#5C88D3")
    ps-face-attributes("#5C88D3")
    ps-face-attribute-list((:slant italic :foreground "#5C88D3" :background "#BBDDFF"))
    ps-plot-with-face(459 463 (:slant italic :foreground "#5C88D3" :background "#BBDDFF"))
    ps-generate-postscript-with-faces1(1 6850)
    ps-generate-postscript-with-faces(1 6850)
    ps-generate(#<buffer Agenda View> 1 6850 ps-generate-postscript-with-faces)
    ps-spool-with-faces(1 6850 nil)
    ps-print-with-faces(1 6850 "~/agenda.ps")
    ps-print-buffer-with-faces("~/agenda.ps")
    ...
    command-execute(org-agenda-write)
#+end_src

Best regards,
  Seb

Since Emacs does display correctly with this way to specify a font, I'd say this is a bug in ps-print and should be reported to Emacs as such.

It does seem to work if you specify the faces like this (without the dot).


 (setq org-tag-faces
       '(("home" 
          (:slant italic
           :foreground "#5C88D3" :background "#BBDDFF"))
         ("work" 
          (:slant italic
           :foreground "#5F7C43" :background "#C1D996"))))

Without the dot [1], I confirm that I can export both to HTML and PDF with no
error.

Though, in the PDF, these tags have a white background, not the one specified.
This is a small annoyance...

... which I'll report (with your analysis) to Emacs.

Thanks for your help!

Best regards,
  Seb

[1] I'd never ever have thought to remove the "dot". How did you discover or
know that?
