Hi I have encountererd something quite bizzare: italic fonts tend to be larger than the normal ones: if i set: Emacs.default.attributeFont: -*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-* italics are larger than 160. if i set it to 100, italics are still larger even then 120. If i set: Emacs.default.attributeFont: -*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-* Emacs.italic.attributeFont: -*-courier-medium-r-*-*-*-120-*-*-*-*-*-* all goes fine, till i use info: the info node face, whice is bold italic, goes again larger than should be... :( anyone see something like that? my "installation": uname -a: SunOS corvette 5.5 Generic_103093-14 sun4m sparc SUNW,SPARCstation-5 ./configure '--gung-ho' '--prefix=/users/98/maths/pezz/local' '--debug=no' '--error-checking=none' '--memory-usage-stats=no' '--dynamic=yes' '--with-clash-detection' XEmacs 21.0-b67 "20 minutes to Nikko" configured for `sparc-sun-solaris2.5'.
