3369.0. "5.3-1 / VS-3100 BW as VT1300 font pb" by TLSE01::SCHLUMBERGER (Marc SCHLUMBERGER, WS-VMS-Ultrix Conslt) Thu Sep 20 1990 11:05

    Using a 6320 with a VS-3100 ( mode VT-1300 ) and VMS 5.3-1
    I can use notepad visualize the 
    Bitstream-Terminal-Bold-R-Narrow--18-180-75-75-C-70-ISO8859-1 font
    
    In my UIL program I define 
    
    fontdrc  : font('-Adobe-courier-bold-r-normal--12-120-75-75-m-70-iso8859-1');
    fontterdrc1 : font('-dec-terminal-bold-r-narrow--14-140-75-75-c-60-iso8859-1');
    fontterdrc : font('-Bitstream-Terminal-Bold-R-Narrow--18-180-75-75-C-70-ISO8859
     
    
    I have got the following message :
    
    X Toolkit Warning:
    Drm__CW_ConvertValue: Couldn't convert fontlist font
    'Bitstream-Terminal-Bold-R-Narrow--18-180-75-75-C-70-ISO8859-1
                        - DRMNotFound
    
    Any idea of the problem ??

	> -Bitstream-Terminal-Bold-R-Narrow--18-180-75-75-C-70-ISO8859-1 Looking in my trusty Appendix D to the Guide to Xlib Programming, I find there is a -Bitstream-Terminal-Bold-R-Narrow--18-180-75-75-C-7-ISO8859-1 ^ Note missing "0" Technically, the field should have been 70, but there was a mistake made in the terminal font names, so we are currently stuck with the bad names. In DECwindows version 3, we will correct the font names. In the meantime, I recommend using wildcards judiciously: --Terminal-Bold-R-Narrow---180-----ISO8859-1 will find the font you want. You should also change fontterdrc1, as the -DEC-Terminal font has the same problem in its name.
