We have an application that uses DECwindows with no problem on a DECstation 3100, but when we come to run it on a DECstation 5000, we get warning messages that we do not understand. Here are two of these warnings: X Toolkit Warning: Drm__CW_ConvertValue: Couldn't convert fontlist font '-ADOBE- Courier-Bold-R-Normal--14-140-75-75-M-90-ISO8859-1' - DRMNotFound ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- the second application on the DECstation 5000 gave the following warning: X Toolkit Warning: Drm__CW_ConvertValue: Couldn't convert font '-adobe-courier-bold-r-normal--12-1 20-75-75-M-70-iso8859-1' - DRMNotFound ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Why are we getting these messages and what could we do to fix these warnings? Here is a listing of what is installed through setld on the DECstation 5000: Subset Status Description ====== ====== =========== MSRAGENTS100 installed MSU SNMP AGENTS MSRBASE100 installed DECMCC MSU V1.0 BASE KIT MSRMAN100 DECMCC MSU V1.0 MANUAL PAGES QLRBASE010 installed ULTRIX/SQL Relational Database QLRDEVT010 installed ULTRIX/SQL Development Library QLRERRMSG010 installed ULTRIX/SQL Error Msg.

| 3321.1 | maybe it's fontpath ? | EEMELI::TAVI | Reserved for future use | Mon Sep 10 1990 05:21 | 22 |
Hi,
It may be so, that your DS5000 uses 100dpi fonts (fontpath by default),
and when your applications tries to find font with exact name from
75dpi directory, you'll get an error.
So how to fix it?
1) You could use /usr/bin/X11/xset fp= /usr/lib/X11/fonts/decwin/75dpi,...
to change the fontpath (xset without arguments gives you more info)
with xset q you can check current fontpath.
2) You can also modify applications resource file or UIL file to use
another (maybe 100dpi) font or you can use font wildcarding when
naiming the font. You can use /usr/bin/X11/xlsfonts to see what fonts
are available on your system.
Both xset and xlsfonts come from uws unsupported part!
Hope this helps!

| 3321.2 | Thanks, that fixed it! | MARX::ADAMS | Tue Sep 11 1990 11:03 | 9 | |
I loaded up the UDXUNMIT400 subset off the unsupported tape, and ran
xset -q. Sure enough, the font path was only out to the 100 dpi font.
When i ran xset +fp /usr/lib/X11/fonts/decwin/75dpi, all our
applications started behaving normally again.
Thanks for your help on this.
