Hello,
  thank you for your font answers earlier this week.  GDynFont works
great.  
  There is a particular font that we use in our logo.  It is the Chevara
Font from StarOffice (Type1) I am
having a banner made and need to create a HUGE image since it will be
blown up to 3 feet wide.  
  Gimp will render the font just fine up to a height of 1024 pixels or
points.  Any higher number causes gimp to display nothing after computing
for a while as if it is
rendering the font (the time for computation is about the same as 1024).

This is both on Redhat 6.2 with Gimp 1.?  and on RedHat 7.0 with Gimp
1.2.1. 

I think this may be a font server thing instead of a gimp thing.  Anyone
know?

Hey,
  With Gimp 1.1.24 or 25 (sorry i fogot which) on Red Hat 7.0 I cannot get
any fonts to scale above 72 pixels or points (which is also the
highest number listed in the multiselect). The box is using Xfree86
4.0.3 with the xfont
servver and freetype for true type fonts.  I added some type1 fonts but
they dont scale either.

  Anyone know why?  Would a newer version of Gimp fix this problem?
