I have the following problem when running Piere Humblet's cygwin port
of xfig under 4.1.0.
Text is only diplayed if the font size is one of the following sizes:
10, 12, 14, 18, 24
This happens for both postscript and latex fonts.
These sizes are indeed the font sizes for which pcf files exist in
/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts.
The linux boxes I have access to have the same sizes, but they appear
to be able to scale the fonts.
Is this a known problem? Any suggestions on how to solve it?
(I cannot use the remote Linux box as font server because the service
is disabled.)
Thanks
Fabio
