I have been using x11r2. I ran into some problems for which I
couldn't find solution with my knowledge of X. I would highly
appreciate any help that I can get. I would prefer to get the
reply to following problems in an E-Mail to me at
"kadakia@applicon.com".


1st problem :

Given text size, is there any way to get list of all fixed width
fonts of the given text size without loading all available fonts
and checking their sizes ?

2nd problem :

Is there a standard set of fonts which will be available on all
xlib and server implementation ?

3rd problem :

If a given workstation supports only one hardware font, how will
server support multiple fonts? Does the server stroke out the
font ?
