Unfortunately, I cannot reproduce your problem here. I'll need more information to get to the bottom of this. > The following messages appear in the xterm from which I started Ted: > appFont.c(812) aff->affFontFamilyName="Helvetica" afe->afeXfontFamilies=0x0 [...] Hmm, it seems to be complaining that it can't find anything to use as a Helvetica font for that document. What happens if you do: xlsfont | grep -i helvetica Note that providing appropriate fonts is up to you. Debian packages cannot depend on particular fonts, because your Xserver and/or your font server may be located on different machines. Furthermore, there is no way for Ted to know which fonts might be required, because those are defined by the documents. Hence, as I say, providing the fonts you need is up to you. However, if this is the problem, then I do think that Ted could provide a more helpful error message! If access to fonts is not the problem, then I'm really not sure what to think. In any case, please send me the output of the command above. That should at least give me a starting point. -- Chris Waters | Pneumonoultra- osis is too long [EMAIL PROTECTED] | microscopicsilico- to fit into a single or [EMAIL PROTECTED] | volcaniconi- standalone haiku -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
