For example, also "bitstream vera sans mono" fails wheras "andale mono" works. Maybe I should mention that all these fonts are displayed correctly in the canvas. For the "working" fonts I do not even need to pass a fontmap to postscript(). > Some useful discussions on the topic: > [0] > http://www.velocityreviews.com/forums/t326920-tkinter-canvas-postscript-fontmap.html > [1] http://wiki.tcl.tk/8483 I have already seen these, however they don't help me much, because of the strange problems described above. So I am still not sure if it's improper use of the fontmap or some other weird problem with either Tk or maybe my system's postscript engine.
