- hellow,
-
- I defined several fonts in my .Xdefaults file: courier-bold, new century
- bold, bitstream charter-bold, both in full name format, with * abreiviations,
- and with aliases I found in xlsfonts and fonts.dir, fonts.alias files.
-
- when I
- 'm on the sun work stations with a sparc file server, running "openwin"
- complains it can't find these fonts. The same fonts are ALL perfectly ok
- when I LOGIN REMotely via telnet from tektronix xp27 and xp330's; when
- I login via telenet from pc's running pc-nfs/hummingbirds eXceedp, all's ok,
- except when I start up certain applications, then it complains about
- not finding new century-bold-i-14 fonts.
-
- what goes? why is it that only the TEK remote logins are completely ok?
-
- thanx for answering,
- sue@byron.u.washington.edu
