Hello,
I am running etch, and I use xfig to create figures. When I call xfig
from a command line I get the following error messages:
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ xfig

Warning: Cannot convert string

and when I try to rescale text in a xfig figure, I get the following
messages for example:
Can't find -*-times-medium-r-normal--13-*-*-*-*-*-ISO8859-*, using 6x13
Can't find -*-times-medium-r-normal--16-*-*-*-*-*-ISO8859-*, using 6x13
Can't find -*-times-medium-r-normal--22-*-*-*-*-*-ISO8859-*, using 6x13
I have installed the xfonts-100dpi and xfonts-75dpi packages, but it
seems that I have forgot something else. Any help will be very welcome.
Hi,
just for the records, the problem was I didn't have the gsfonts-x11
package installed. After installing it, fonts can be rescaled in xfig.
Thanks to Roland Rosenfeld, the Debian maintainer of xfig, who pointed
me to this solution.
In an off-list email, Douglas A. Tutty pointed me to the same solution.
But at that time it didn't work because I didn't realize I had to
restart the xserver before using the gs fonts...
cheers
Marcelo
