Message-ID: <87773@aerospace.AERO.ORG> Date: 5 Oct 90 23:21:14 GMT References: <481@kaos.MATH.UCLA.EDU> Organization: The Aerospace Corporation, El Segundo, CA Lines: 11 We just had exactly the same problem on an Silicon Graphics 4D/20 with R3. We got it to work by uncompressing all of the fonts and then doing mkfontdir on each font directory. This worked but we have no idea why since SGI claims that the fonts aren't shipped compressed and some other machines here work fine with the compressed fonts. You might want to try mkfontdir on each directory first to see if that fixes the problem before actually uncompressing the files. Hope this was of some help.
