I suppose I should mention that Coyote Graphics routines also take into
account the different default character sizes between Windows and UNIX
computers. So cgDefCharsize(), which all Coyote Graphics routines use to
determine character sizes, distinguished between Windows, UNIX, and
PostScript devices, and also whether you are using !P.Multi or not.

This can only be accomplished if you do NOT set !P.Charsize.

Cheers,

David
