Thank you Jim for the input. Yes, fltk is compiled with: cairo xfl eix fltk Installed versions: 1.3.3-r3(1)(01:43:37 PM 03/07/2017)(cairo opengl threads xft xinerama -debug -doc -examples -games -static-libs) fc-match helvetica Helvetica.pfa: "Helvetica" "Regular" XFT_DEBUG=1 flpsed invoice_5566.pdf XFT_DEBUG=1 XftFontInfoFill: /usr/share/fonts/dejavu/DejaVuSans.ttf: 0 (14 pixels) So I have Helvetica but flpsed is using DejaVuSans.ttf, question is why? -- Regards Thelma
