Welcom Kumar, I don't do graphics in email, sorry. What you want are xfonts. Look through the packages (apt-cache, aptitude, whatever, or the debian.org web site) for xfont and you'll see a slew of them. For fixed-width I use either monospace or terminus but there are others. There's also gsfonts-x11 that allows X to use the fonts supplied with gs (ghostscript, a postscript renderer). Doug. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
