Fonts have changed. From my look jdk1.2 want to really use scaleable
fonts/type1 fonts/truetype fonts. Scaleable fonts from X are the ones with
0-0-0-0 in them ( as this is the criteria used by jdk1.2)
type1&truetype are suppose to be from the OPENWIN directory, which is "" in my
build. There is a type1 directory in /usr/X11R6 ( but no TrueType ).
I, just like u are somewhat in the dark about the methods & madness employed
by javasoft. Although I have the code, and can fix the problem as I find them
- I still just cannot say why, or even how to back out of the enhancement.
In either case, most of the code to handle type1&truetype are/were just not
64bit happy. It appears to have been coded for a 16/32 bit environment. I
think I have all the long/int/short issues resolved - but who-knows, there
may yet be other pointer arith boo-boo's ( this would be for my release v4 )
gat
BTW. font rendering on my maching is a slug.
