Hi. I have got a customer who has trouble with calling "XLoadQueryFont."
She is using VMS V5.3. She could use the DEC Terminal emulator fonts
by calling XLoadQueryFont in previous releases of VMS. But, in VMS 5.3,
the call does not work and returns NULL. She says "xlsfonts" shows the
requested font to be present. She needs a workaround or some equivalent
non-proportional fonts. Also, she wants to know why VMS engineering
has changed things. Please anyone help!! Thank you in advance.

| 2211.1 | Need more input... | GSRC::WEST | Variables don't, Constants aren't | Tue Feb 06 1990 20:38 | 8 |
What language are you using ?? I use the VAX $ Bindings from Ada and am not having any problems under VMS V5.3. Is it possible to post the piece of code in question ?? -=> Jim <=- | |||||
| 2211.2 | there is a difference | SX4GTO::HAYASHI | Wed Mar 21 1990 20:38 | 19 | |
She is using C language. She found the difference in some fonts
between V5.2 and V5.3. When dump the file
SYS$COMMON:[SYSFONT.DECW.100DPI]TERMINAL_BOLD14_100DPI.DECW$FONT
V5.3 contains a string
-Bitstream-Terminal-Bold-R-Normal--18-140-100-100-c-11-ISO8859-1
V5.2 contains a string
-Bitstream-Terminal-Bold-R-Normal--20-140-100-100-C-11-ISO8859-1
Same is the file TERMINAL_BOLD_NARROW14_100DPI.DECW$FONT.
A little bit confusing. Thank you for trying to answer.
