I needed to create "big" text for annotating images and found that only certain sizes were available. That led me to
http://forum.world.st/additional-font-size-td3206897.html I ended up adding the following to my code: FreeTypeFontProvider current families isEmpty ifTrue:[ FreeTypeFontProvider current updateFromSystem. ]. aFont := LogicalFont familyName: 'DejaVu Sans Mono' pointSize:100. It seems to work. Is there a better way to do it? Should there be any helper methods in LogicalFont to do this type of thing? A lazy LogicalFont class>>loadSystemFonts would be less invasive than setting the preference to load fonts on startup, since it could be triggered as needed and cost nothing otherwise. I am thinking of LogicalFont mostly because I learned to look there a long time ago, so it is the first place I go for fonts. Bill
