Thanks for the analysis; to me, it sounds like what I really want is to make the default in webmagick 'Helvetica', then? After all, that's been the _real_ default the last N years. (I already NMUed webmagick to use Graphics::Magick, which at least unbroke it, but moving it back to Image::Magick would probably be a good idea in the long run, now that the real problem has been uncovered.) /* Steinar */ -- Homepage: http://www.sesse.net/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
