Message-ID: <568@rome.gdwb.oz.au> Date: 14 Jan 91 01:23:30 GMT Sender: news@gdwb.oz.au Lines: 12 Several people have noted in several different applications that fonts that have been converted to OpenWindows do not take up the same amount of space on the screen as they did under other X11R4 servers. Now it is hard to believe that a bitmapped font is going to take up any more space so what about both the character and line spaceing? This only seems to be a problem with proportional fonts. -- Craig Bishop Geelong & District Water Board Phone: +61 52 262506 61-67 Ryrie St Geelong Fax: +61 52 218236 Victoria 3220 Australia
