hmmm ... i asked someone who's quite the authority explicitly about this, and he seemed adamant that, if i wanted four variations of a font (in my case, VeraMono), i had to add four individual font entries to the configuration file. that is, one for regular, one for bold, etc. i'll check back with him and press him a little more closely on this, since it would be ideal if a single base font could be used here. but i was sure he told me that's not the way it worked, at least for docbook. if i track this down, i'll let you know. thanks. rday --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
