My workaround to this problem is to copy all fonts from the solaris machine in /usr/openwin/lib/X11/fonts to a cygwin user's directory (say /home/user/owfonts), then use
xset +fp '/home/user/owfonts/75dpi/' David ps: xset is a separate cygwin package which might have to be downloaded -> ->I have upgraded Cygwin to X11R7.4. In the past I could read my e-mail ->via "ssh" and "dtmail" from a Solaris machine with a nice font. Now I ->get a font which is about twice the size of the old one so that I get ->too few lines in my dtmail-window and therefore have to scroll a lot. ->I have already installed all available fonts from my mirror site ->without solving this problem.
