Yes, IDL object graphics uses a completely new font library in
IDL 6.0 than they did in IDL 5.6. Perhaps there is a trade-off in
font size consistency with readability. I *greatly* prefer the
readability of the new fonts and *desperately* would like them
available in direct graphics, where they would be useful to
the 95% of us who use object graphics only infrequently. :-)

Cheers,

David
