That's exactly what I needed - thank you Grant. At least, I think it is. Now, having created a deja.psf.gz from DejaVuSansMono, and put it in /usr/ local/share, I've set the font to /usr/local/share/deja and restarted consolefont. I get an error: "setfont.c:58 do_loadfont: Bad character height 37". Changing the point size specified to otf2bdf (and rerunning bdf2psf) makes no difference. Next, I tried doing the same thing to Liberation.Mono-Regular, but bdf2psf complained "the width is not integer number." I had taken care to copy the previous bdf2psf command, which appeared to have succeeded, simply substituting the font name. Has anyone another clue for me? I'm a bit stuck at the moment. -- Regards, Peter.
