Hi Günter, Thank you for the thorough reply.
"Seems to be the default CM. Never call it ugly on a TeX-related list." I will remember that. I should probably apologize for the rather harsh language. It's amazing what happens when you are frustrated. By the time I had emailed the list, I had tried just about everything I knew of to get it to work. I also appreciate the pointers to the previous discussion, which I only skimmed when it appeared on the list last week. "What do you call correct?" The document class specifies a completely different font from computer modern. (As I wrote the document class, there might be a problem in how I have defined it though.) It should be making use of an Open Type font called Diavlo. Here is the relevant font code from the document class. \RequirePackage{fancyhdr} \RequirePackage{fontspec} \RequirePackage{xunicode} \RequirePackage{xlxtra} \setmainfont{Diavo} \setmonofont{Courier 10 Pitch} As I mentioned in the previous email, this code gets ignored completely. Even if I add the following to the LaTeX document preamble: \usepackage{fontspec} \usepackage{xunicode} \usepackage{xlxtra} \setmainfont{Diavlo} \setmonofont{Courier 10 Pitch} I will go ahead and look through the archives. Any ideas on why the document class font code is getting ignored? Cheers, Rob
