I&nbsp;am struggling with the problem of determining&nbsp; font sizes in
a device independent
<br>way. Using the Hershey Fonts works ok but they are not very nice looking.
The TT
<br>Fonts are fuzzy (at least on my Unix system) and the Hardware Fonts
tend to
<br>produce unpredictable results in terms of the character size. This
is particularly
<br>annoying when using the Contour routine.&nbsp; Depending on character
size individual
<br>labels maybe supressed.
<p>Thanks
<br>Axel
