================================================================ Dear Bug Team! my display is set to have dpi=115, X thinks it's ok $ xrdb -symbols|grep RES -DX_RESOLUTION=4531 -DY_RESOLUTION=4526 $ and i have set, just to be sure as in belt and suspenders, Xft.dpi: 115 in my ~/.Xdefaults how did it come that XEmacs initializes truetype fonts at 75 dpi? for example: i have set in my .Xdefaults XEmacs.default.attributeFont: mono:size=15:style=Roman and this font is instantiated (?) like this (long line split) initialized font Bitstream Vera Sans Mono-15: familylang=en: style=Roman: stylelang=en: slant=0: weight=80: pixelsize=15.625: foundry=bitstream: hintstyle=2: outline=True: scalable=True: dpi=75: fontformat=TrueType what's funny it's that the fonts in the menubar and other widgets are instantiated OK, e.g., sans:size=15 is instantiated at 24 pixel! furthermore, i tried to specify explicitly dpi in the font specification, like in: XEmacs.default.attributeFont: mono:dpi=115:size=15:style=Roman but fonts derived from the default are, again, instantiated against a dpi=75 and as such they're much smaller than i intended thank you, gb ================================================================ System Info to help track down your bug: --------------------------------------- uname -a: Linux boffi95 2.6.7-1-386 #1 Thu Jul 8 05:08:04 EDT 2004 i686 GNU/Linux .../configure '--disable-sound' '--disable-error-checking' '--disable-assertions' '--disable-kkcc' '--disable-mc-alloc' '--enable-assertions' '--enable-bignum=gmp' '--enable-database=berkdb' '--enable-debug' '--enable-dialogs=lucid' '--enable-error-checking=all' '--enable-memory-usage-stats' '--enable-menubars=lucid' '--enable-modules' '--enable-mule' '--enable-pdump' '--enable-scrollbars=lucid' '--enable-widgets=athena' '--with-athena=3d' '--with-optimization=yes' '--with-rel-alloc' '--with-xft=all' '--with-xim=xlib' '--with-zlib' XEmacs 21.5-b22 "cucumber" (+Xft+CVS-20050922) configured for `i686-pc-linux'.
