Hi Simon, > in a few words, NOT EVEN COMPILING.
Well, I gave Python. You didn't say what language, etc., you were using. "I'm not going to supply any error output..." or tell us the language. :-) Seems to be you're after Mono from your later email. http://www.mono-project.com/Pango:Beginners suggests Pango.FontDescription.FromString("normal 10") gets you on the way.
